compass; map; tools

compass --> direction, you need to know that

but you don't know what the land is, what's there, interior movements
those you have to discover

and i guess sometimes wrong direction, but that's kind of...well, bad. some people might object to "bad" because if we're trying to talk about art
and not commerce

its all "discovery", etc., and I SORT of see that viewpoint

but I think then we're interacting two things:
a view of ART
and a view of LIFE

my view of ART is sympathetic to this idea--discovery, pure organicism, "no wrong decisions"
my view of LIFE is unsympathetic to it, in ways I accept as subjective but also stand by: time exists, opportunity costs exist, i want to make ART (not commerce, apparently) but i do want my ART to be recognized in the world
