Times Are Hard

Observations of others:

Friendly and sociable.
Too much.

The world and its reality shifts dramatically in increments of days.
A significant project of mine has already been overwhelmed by wealthy French people.
I can only hope that their intentions are as sincere as mine were.
Leaves more room to work on other projects. Perhaps original projects that are substantially less stealable.

The dual worlds of reality and fantasy submerge into each other as more filmmakers fall under the rising tide of remakes and reboots and original ideas are simply squashed and mangled into familiar and friendly fare.

What hope is there?

It's a shame I won't live, but then again, who does?

Time Enough At Last

Fantasy drips and dissipates into the sewer.
Where once was imagination has decayed back into reality.

All the time I spent and there is still nothing but reality.
Will I bury my stories or will they bury me?

What prevents me from crafting meticulous lies to hide behind?

Olives appear on the tree outside and soon they will fall to the cold hard ground.

Nothing grows here.
