Where Do Ideas Come From

This was shot in Athens in May of 2021. The poem is a conversation with the muse and it's about inspiration although the muse appears as a divine entity or a human lover at points therefore it could be interpreted just as a love poem. There is an underlying narrative about faith and the denial of the protagonist to be controlled by it. I always thought that the God question wasn't a binary one and in this poem, the protagonist admits to the existence of the muse however he chooses to create without any divine intervention.

A Poem For Artists by illneas
"Where do ideas come from" I wondered
and you whispered in my ear
"If I told you it wouldn't be art"
At which point the words in my head become breaths
How can I look you in the eyes and not be blinded?
I'm supposed to let you enter my dreams but love is something you will never truly feel
You left a note in my home saying
"I will try to stay here but your ideas are constantly on fire"
I told you
"The human soul is constantly on fire"
I'm feeling as if I'm entering rooms where you just left
It seems like the word "inspiration" was created just to describe the lack of it,
and empty space around me was created to describe the absence of you
With your hand on my shoulder, you whispered once again
"If you could understand it wouldn't be art"
And I sensed that you smiled as a human would smile
Maybe not thinking about you will bring me closer to you
But that would mean I accept my inability to understand you
So now I'm talking directly to you, my love
You will always remain a part of me but divine intervention is not required for my ideas to come to life
I confess to you in the most blasphemous and loving way
A kind heart is enough for my art
However, having you around helps me love myself a bit more

Where do ideas come from? If I told you, it wouldn't be art. I agree with this sentiment a lot. in the same way we are awed and inspired by a magician's trick as long as he doesn't reveal his secrets, we are in love with this world as long as we are baffled by it. Maybe not knowing answers to a lot of questions isn't such a bad idea. Anyways that's how I interpreted it. Thank you for uploading during your exams.

Dear a kid with a camera, The concept of art is as confusing as the human mind, because it is a product of it. This is a beautiful video, the poem tied together with the music and images. “A kind heart is enough for my art” what a beautiful line. Keep creating, An internet friend

@chuckerstuffmacguffin7506 3 жыл бұрын

I believe you may have mistaken the concept of the human mind as human suffering. What is most confusing is that we are born with both a brain and a heart and how they are diametrically opposed to each others functions of interpreting emotion and reason. That, my friend, is what is confusing about being a human.

I'm not sure I fully agree with her words. I used to think that it's true, but now after watching this video I uderstand,that maybe you can understand, without ruining the concept of the art. I can heavily relate to her words. This strange feeling of having someone you don't even know as the person who's the closest to you is very familiar to me. It seems like she trusts them so much, and expects them to show her who she is, since she can not sem find her inner "art". Maybe she even sees herself, or sort of a grown mature version of her in them. I noticed some sense of inferiority feeling in her love to them, like she wants to be them and wants to have them at the same time. What an accurate way to express such a strange kind of love. And the visuals, the music... Beautiful. It looks like something I would do, if only I could make my "art" (aka, the thoughts and emotions I don't understand) actual art. So let me thank you, and myself, and tell you that it's brilliant.

it's truly said that sometimes it's less abt whether u fully comprehend art nd more abt the way it makes u feel And I have always loved the way his poems make me feel For all the time that I'm watching his videos, I just get lost.... In the world that he creates... I just love to lose myself in it and absorb each nd every word and sentence and the meaning behind it And yessss the voice artists are sooo excellent ..their voices, pauses, the way they recite each word And the scenery When it all comes together, it touches a lot of parts of my heart Some parts gets healed Some are born afresh, which never existed before Some just receive a feather-like touch of gentleness And some get completely down and lost in the poem The thing I love abt his poems is they are not overly romantisized But the way he potrays human emotions, the rawness and vulnerability of humans It's all this that makes me love and appreciate his work soo much

All artists are alchemists We take what the world ignores and breathe our soul into it Some take sounds and make music Some take wallpaper samples and old frames to make analogous frames for poetry All of it is the music of the soul. The tao that cannot be seen directs us The magicians of the universe are rare gift of love In every true piece that expresses the language of the soul the author is love Look at all the music and stories worth sharing Always the author is love Love brokenhearted or lonely Love in bloom All is the product of the master magician The tao which cant be seen Can bring to life the throw away world I live for the thrift, sometimes mostly junk i find a few jewels Dust them up and down, pair them with other materials im not limited to what it is in that moment, Ill collect all the beads together and drape them from the light shade. When i began writing my thoughts and ideas i was laughed and told id swallowed a dictionary. Today im sitting in my one bedroom loft flat, built in the 20,s for single miners. I have a fiver to my name but i find little things that are being thrown to the trash and i find them perfect to make beautiful withh paint and wallpaper samples to mount my own wisdom, affirmations and deep thought. Its a perfect analogy that these bits of what they called rubbish, i write my soul and frame it with. Its been through a long harsh winter too. Maybe when they express how beautiful this is or that and im asked where i bought it. Ill say, free from heaven as the diamonte reflections that cover my bedroom floor and walls are. All place just to catch the sunlight and make rainbows everywhere. We are rare that see the world for what it can be transformed into but im a butterfly at heart, i must have beautiful things on my walls, even if I have not two pennies to buy materials. Art can be made of anything if you want to. Turn the stones into gold and lets all try to be alchemist magicians to make even the old and worse for wear, sparkle in a new way. Inspiring new things from old to find out who i am and revive my ownership from the discarded life i was left to. Sometimes my box of scraps of wallpaper and tiny tester pots of paint(all i can afford), most of it they see without the eyes of creativity and make our humble beginings seem dismissable, The other day i was cutting a sequined decoration from a rag to attatch to a cushion, blue peter work it was called The other day again, your box for your play things, as long as its stuff you enjoy. I wont be crushed by judgement of eyes that cant see. G

@@illneas The more I listen, the more it sounds like a spiritual experience of sorts. The invisible divine. Unknowable. But the unknowable is art. Art is divine. Be it divine or human. The "knowing" is a trap. Perhaps even death. As to "know", removes growth. And growth, the act of it, is life But the ending seems to leave one foot in the door. Or, at least leaves the door to the divine open while accepting both its existence and non-existence on a middle ground. The word "freedom" comes to mind. Fantastic work and I don't me to project and flex. Out of nowhere, I thought I'd reply with some deeper insight that I gained from your poetry. I'm slow like that. lol. But it's all good.

Love this piece! I am reluctant to say this especially when it comes to words and how they come to you, but it is my opinion that you should divide this poem in two and I am pretty sure that you know at what point you should finish the first and start the second, in my opinion the impact would be better. (it is just a suggestion)
