You cannot always have hits in life;
There have to be some misses.
Sometimes you'll hear words of praise;
Sometimes you'll hear hisses.
Artists don't always aim to produce
Works to please the masses.
Those who try will find themselves
Falling flat on their asses.
The point is this: create…create!
Express what comes from the heart.
Do your best with each endeavor
Though folks might tear it apart.
Enjoy the creative process, for it
Can truly be your friend.
Results are fine, but the process itself
Is more than a means to an end.
Now, IF you have nothing but flops,
That might be a sign
That you should seek a different form
Of expression in order to shine.
Find what works for you and allow
Creative juices to flow.
If people expect you to be who you aren't,
Tell them, “Thank you, but no.”
