I wonder if my writing will reawaken, after the absence of doing so, on this blog. But, I have been going through numerous changes, lately, that altered my creative perspective and method. There are more drawings, that exist, of a very explicit nature, because I created them before such changes happened. But, I no longer want to express sexuality so graphically, as before in my art. I now have been drawing works, from a more romantic and monogamous perspective. It is the way that I feel now, about relationships, between two men, who love each other. The trauma of past relationships, caused me to explore a more casual, and less committed behavior anong gay men. But my attitude has changed. And whenever I change as a person, it naturally affects my art, because it is so personal.
Longing Again
You enhance my blues,
with an indigo
that is rich with an ache
and a pulse
that beats in
my heart endlessly,
for your hands
to touch my skin.
I need you.
And the mere thought,
causes my eyes to blur
with burning tears.
