Faul is as faul does

I crave the creativity of imagination Conceiving an idea that excites the idle soul To toil it for value and purpose As Aristotle intended it to be. But waiting for the time to do Limits the glory of accomplishment As the idea rots in an imagined grime. But to strike beyond this negligence of my apparent talent Could my purpose come to fruition And creativeness oozes its milk and honey. Let me seek the sage in my troubled soul To defeat the self-inflicting inquisitor Plaguing the catalyst of my destiny to prosper.

Dear Nicole, Your poem beautifully captures the struggle between creative potential and the procrastination that often holds it back. Your words relate to anyone who has felt the weight of untapped talent. The call to defeat the self-inflicting inquisitor is empowering. This is an introspective piece that encourages us to embrace our creative destiny. Love it! - Blessings, Daniel
