...Outside Ourselves!

Snippets, in 3 lines ...

Ideas exist,

and have always existed,

outside of ourselves.

.  .  .

We can say they're ours

if no one's said them before,

but they're really not ...

.  .  .

'cause they're in the Soup,

and all we can do is stir,

and serve 'em on up. 

______________

In traditional Senryu/Haiku format

...maybe Writer's Block ain't a block,

just an unstirred bowl :)

Ah, insightful wisdom! Even my typing predictor got that. The Soup we ladle from and the Soup we wade in, swim in and deep dive into. Just marvellously depicted. 🙏🏻🕊 this goes to where my musings oft wander 🕊🙏🏻

Thanks so much, Red Brick! ...and for your always welcome & so often humorous thoughts :)

[Red Brick Keshner]

Only to glad that there is humour to be had. A few do not consider these quips as humorous at all… but that’s beside the point. Super glad comic relief is still a thing. 🙏🏻🕊

...Ditto😅

I believe you’re right that nothing is original anymore. I guess the next option is to find stuff worth imitating. Nicely done :)

Thanks Mary, I like your take on this!
...Hey, I've an Idea! You should write a piece on it :) ... by the way - Which comes first, the Acrylic or the Write?😅

[MCS]

Sometimes the writing triggers a painting or reminds me that I have something stored away that I can use. Other times the writing creates the image, and then I head off to the easel.

I've never been asked that one before 😊

[Dylan Macadham]

An insightful answer, thanks Mary :) In my mind-picture, you're standing between your easel and your desk, glancing back & forth :) ... by the by, I've plenty more Questions up my sleeve😅

LOL sometimes that's what is going on.
