The poet's lament is a literary expression of deep grief, sorrow, or regret, frequently focusing on personal loss, worldly hardships, or environmental destruction. I think I wrote a poem with that title way back in my youth. My only writing presently are these short blurbs I scribble with each graphic upload. Maybe a bit of my poetic flair goes into my graphic work these days. I'd like to think so. This is a 9 by roughiy 4 inches gel pen with color pencil drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Seems Original Jones Art grieves over a lot of things these days here in northwest Austin, Texas.

In an interview, Bob Dylan was asked why his songs have so many verses ... he replied, " I get paid by the word" : ) I think that poets, like songwriters and artists simply have a lot to get out. A great weekend to you, Charles

Artist Reply: Old Bob. I remember when he was young Bob. Oh well. Everything transitions. I guess we all get tangled up on blue eventually. I woke early with a hankering to continue work on the new 3D. Yes, I'm nuts. Ha. :)

No poet without being a cry-baby. Real poet, I mean!!! Happiness is what ruins good poetry:))) Hope your weekend had a good start, Charles!

Artist Reply: My weekend, like most days, started without fanfare, Nikolay. You may be right about poets. They do have a tendency to cry in their beer, ale, cognac, absinthe.... Hope you are doing well and looking at the world with that creative eye of yours. :)

I hear you, Charles, and I rather like your blurbs.

Artist Reply: Thank you, Laura! I do, on occasion, feel like a voice crying in the wilderness, but don't we all? Hope you are doing well and feeling creatively optimistic. :)
