I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Day by day, we often say, day
by day by day. When we feel
outpaced or out of place and
the day simply hasn’t been all
it should, and we haven’t been
all we could. Any day, or even
another day, we will do better;
we often say as a promise or a
pledge: can we really believe in
what we say? Everyday, or any
day, day by day by day by day,
we hope (even pray) that today
could be that kind of day.

Two timelines, so many similarities; this book is a delightful comparison of two artists who have shaped popular culture.
In Dickens and Price: A Particular Kind of Genius, author Nick Hornby makes you think about the creative process by exploring the parallel lives of these two profound creatives.
If you are a fan of either Prince or Dickens (or both), this is a wonderful read.

When the fog lifts
will it show what it hides
inside
our comfortable homes
and uncomfortable lives
When the morning lights
will we see what is
within
our tangible disappointments
and inequitable sins
When the night moves
will you still find me there
will you
offer your wisdom
or a cold vacant stare
