Semantics

I'm doing this action
So something good will happen
Is called Inspiration
I'm doing this action
So something bad won't happen
Is called Motivation
To be deeply inspired
Is much more desired
Because focus on the joy
Is what fuels that fire
To feel motivated
Is not always the same as elated
Its actually overrated
Because it feels like depleted
To take an action
Due to fear and doubt
Will only bring
Those aspects out
For the thought is on the worry
"Better do this in a hurry"
"So that I prevent the fear"
But it really isn't clear
Because the attention given to it
May cause it to appear
If I act from a place
Of positive space
And take action to create
By feeling the joy
Instead of fearing a fate
I'd like to avoid
Then I can live in freedom
Of creation
Instead of in a constant
State of preparation

Thanks, Word :) And thanks for being the first to comment on this one! And thanks for the shake-up, I need to pick up the pen again, get some stuff out. Thanks for the nudge :)

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
