Action IS

Articulation1

It IS a challenge. Personal fear gets in the way. It seizes some of us by the soul in a way that we often feel we can't escape.2

But we can.3

It doesn't matter if our fear is "binding." Because it IS possible. It IS possible to take the tile-bag and build a work of art. It IS painful...unfamiliar. And it leaves me with the sense of vomit rising through my spine. Yet somehow when I bite down and let those words be formed, the essence of what must be heard, IS heard.4

If my heart starts pounding through my chest, the room goes dim and starts to spin!5

that's when I know6

That is when I have something to say that must be said. That is when the fear of youth or present lot mean nothing!7

And yet if these words, no matter what they might be, are not held higher by the support of an all-encompassing lifestyle, they mean nothing.8

or more aptly11

act{}ion12

Action is the brackets of life. Everything's beginning and end. An action started and will end each of our lives and each event within them. 13

Kick North, kick South, kick East or West and expect results to follow.14

If the vertebrae are seizing, jaws clenched fists clenched, mind racing, eyes wide, hair standing, soul screaming:15

then BITE, PUNCH, THINK, SEE, FEEL16

and SCREAM!!!17

If now is not the time to act, then tomorrow will be the time to regret.
