her life is a paradox part two


…Like Totally is totally perplexed,
“Why working by commissions feels so shallow?”
In response she hears laughter, but ignores it and persists,

The laughter stops, “Because for pleasing others, you turn away from me,”
the muse replies.
“But who believes in muses? “exclaims Like Totally who feels like
 now it is her turn to laugh.
“Why do you think that pleasing others feels so shallow?” the muse demands.
“Because I feel that it is not myself but others who influence my painting.”
“And how do you feel when nobody cares for what you paint?”
“I feel alone and to beat aloneness I paint intuitively finding answers…”
“And those answers you intuitively find belong to you?”
“You puzzle me.  If answers I intuitively find do not belong to me,
then whose are they?”
“They are mine, and if you turn away from me,
your answers will become what others want from you.”
“You sound crazy! Following your logic do I exist at all?”
In response she hears laughter…
