QUESTIONS
Jon McLaughlin

Katy stands at the top of the stairs. As she’s leaving, her father stares. What has she come to? Another boy she runs to tonight, powerless he just shakes his head, disappointed and off to bed. But he wont be sleeping cause the hours she’s keeping are not right.

She’s asking a question. How will I be after this next one eventually leaves me? How can a man be all that they say when all that I know is men run away? I think I lose just a little bit of me in every man that I see.

Danny’s been out now for 7 days. Funny how he thought the price had been paid on a past he hates to talk about. It’s everything wrong about him. He goes back home to a battlefield and starts to drink as some kind of a shield for the anger instilled in him, and their looks are killing him now.

He’s asking a question. How will I be when it comes down to the end and memories still haunt me? How can He have forgiveness that flows when no one forgives me yet it’s Jesus they know? I think I lose just a little bit of me in this family that wont see.

A crowd of confusion gathers round watching the light as he slowly goes out. After all they’ve talked about, everything’s coming out now. Their anger turns to dead and gone.

Hearts start to feel what feels so wrong and as the time starts passing by and hours turn to days in their heads, they can still hear Him say:

“I came for your questions of what you don’t know, but you can’t see the answers unless I go. So, give me your hatred and give your deceased. Give me your tired and I’ll take them with me. ‘Cause I’m hanging here losing every part of me just to open your eyes to what you would never see and to answer your questions. There’s no place that I’d rather be”

Stronger Than Me
Amy Winehouse

LAST FOREVER

Whenever I get my regular music fix, I am always amazed by the beauty and the power of an artist so much that I visualize myself getting to that very same position. And by this, I do not mean overnight popularity, or financial success, or insane followings as these can all wither and die. I am talking about being in the position of creating something that will last forever. It’s my dream, and I know it will be beautiful.

Tonight, I had my Amy Winehouse fix.

She, in her signature hair, generous servings of eyeliner, and stained skin, was not perfect at all. If anything, she stirred a lot of minds with her actions, provoked a lot of questions with her words, and pierced a lot of hearts with her music - all at the same time. She wasn’t perfect, and her quirks weren’t widely accepted, either. But she, until her last days, pleased herself before anybody else while creating music for the world.

An artist, I believe (although I am in no authority to speak for everyone), is bold enough to take this energy and allow it to grow at a personal level, pleasing themselves before anybody else; being happy with what they come up with way before others even know about it. I say this basically to make one point: If you are pleased with what you do, you become part of it and it becomes part of you. It always starts inside. Sadly, it is often mistaken as selfishness. But really, how do you pour out from something empty?

It takes a relatively short duration to create art, as opposed to a lifetime that it takes to understand why and how you create it. And though it is often mentioned that each work should be better than the previous one, there is no “previous and next” that comes with the one life that we are given. This is when we begin to decide how we want to extend ourselves to lives that are not ours. This is when we realize that a part of us could live on even when we are gone. This is the difference I hope everyone tries to understand. It doesn’t take a huge amount of creativity to please yourself. It only takes heart.

Steady hands and art education can help you create a painting. Good coordination and better ears can help you create music. But a good heart - hungry, driven, and brave - can help you create an experience. Or a sensation. Or an inspiration. A good heart can help you create anything that will last beyond your lifetime.

I want a good heart. I want to create something that will last forever.

Anna Blume is a visual poetry about the lust of a man chasing a woman. The story takes on surreal journey dictated by the mind of the poet. Lust and ingestion, disguised in love, drive the two characters to an end where love turns to be a very lonesome and strange place. The film is based on and inspired by the emblematic love poem from 1919 “An Anna Blume” by Kurt Schwitters.
