Remove the Vampires

 

An artist

must carve the cancerous parts

of family

out of his life, completely

 

Or he will die

a beggar

 

Because it is a disease that inflicts

his emotional eye,

and the fluid state of his consciousness

 

So long as the artist is encumbered

by

narcissistic

selfish, materialistic

blood-sucking vampires,

 

he will find it impossible to grow

in his art,

and will forever be entrenched

in limitations

 

And he will never rise

to his

true potential

How creative in your words and work this write comes to life. 

Impactful.

Vampire People

 

I sometimes imagine jumper cables. When a car battery doesn’t have enough charge to turn the engine over, one can attach jumper cables to another car battery – to get the engine started. And then you remove the jumper cables – and off you go. It’s like helping someone for a time, until they get back on their feet.

 

 

But some in life, take advantage, to permanently attach their jumper cables to another’s battery – because it's a free charge. But instead, they use them like vampire clamps – to get a free charge ad infinitum.
