Although I don't mind wordy dialogue, I usually avoid it in my writing because the audience has the benefit of knowing the reader character's thoughts.
I'm a very wordy person in real life, but writing is my art, not a literal representation of my reality.
I either paint the tree or I paint the forest, but I don't include the cracks in the twigs unless I'm painting a twig for the twig's sake, so to speak.

Concise writing is superior to inflated writing, especially on college application essays. Make each word count. 💪

Poetry: the art of condensing life's enormity into a few lines, the encapsulating of oceans into a single drop...

"Step In Time"
The steps I take are nearing me
to knowing if I'm real
but I'm older than I want to be
and younger than I feel.

If you have it, blog it!
Tumblr media
Reading the "Code of Ethics for Professional Teachers" led to realizing subjectively the three most important sections in the code:
1. Article IV Section 1 (Most Important)
Tumblr media
Teachers should be teachers because they choose to be one and not forced to be one. Teaching must be a passion that they do to mold and produce students who will become competent and functional members of society. Hence, teachers should educate students out of their desire to help students better their lives despite the low compensation.
2. Article VIII Section 2 (More Important)
Tumblr media
An inclusive learning environment is what every student needs. Teachers should create a learning plan involving all the students as they have different learning needs. Inclusivity inside the classroom will make students feel similar to each other, that no one is different, and everyone belongs in the class. Thus, teachers need to ensure that no one is left behind.
3. Article XI Section 3 (Important)
Tumblr media
Teachers will always be in the limelight inside and outside the classroom. Teachers are role models to students; interaction with their former and current students and peers can inevitably happen anywhere. Therefore, teachers should maintain their dignified personalities as their behaviors embody their knowledge, discipline, and credibility, which are significant to ensure that students and peers will see you with respect.

I swore I saw you
In a passing flash of light
Reflected off storefront windows
Along the downtown strip
Your hair whipped
By the salty sea breeze
While the pattern of your sundress
Waved a warm
Welcome
Time fractured in that
Fraction of a second
And reminded me
Reality
Is no more real
Than our memory

"Everything will be erased in a second. The dictionary of words amassed between cradle and deathbed, eliminated. All there will be is silence and no words to say it. Nothing will come out of the open mouth, neither I nor me. Language will continue to put the world into words. In conversation around a holiday table, we will be nothing but a first name, increasingly faceless, until we vanish into the vast anonymity of a distant generation."
....The years . Annie Ernaux
Still from the Netflix web series Haunting of the Bly Manor, dir. Mike Flanagan

Conway the Machine x Jae Skeese —Pain Provided Profit (Drumwork Music Group)
Tumblr media
youtube
Seasoned veteran Conway the Machine teams up with an up-and-coming artist Jae Skeese for a seven-track album. There’s little chemistry between the two, but  Pain Provided Profit kind of works anyway, mostly due to its short length.
That’s a change. Conway’s recent tapes have been a slog to listen through. He’s been repeating himself and making detours in sound to get national attention, but it never really worked. Those albums were so  long that even a solid fan might get Conway fatigue. His life story provided him with plenty of material to write about (on the new CD he raps: “My story is the motivation, I was fightin' open cases  \ Now I'm doin' shows and gettin' bags way out in Copenhagen” which is true), yet you can only write so many songs about how you got shot in the head.
While Pain Provided Profit is a joint project, it feels like Conway’s. Here, the Buffalo MC lets the younger partner take over which makes Conway’s appearances punchier. The two rappers say their verses one after another, without much interaction, except on “Promise” where Jae Skeese and Conway blend perfectly on chorus: “I ain't scared of no loss \ Kept my drive when my homies dozed off.”
Skeese is hardly a match for Conway. On the tape, he acts like an earnest pupil, skillful, honest, versatile technically, but lacking in charisma. He’d not carry a whole album alone, but in small doses he sits perfectly alongside Conway. On the other hand, Conway himself becomes utterly boring on his solo tapes. Five minutes of Conway (and here he’s in an excellent shape) is just what we need. He shines especially on two tracks, both produced by Graymatter, “Stefon Diggs 2” and “Food.” On this last cut he switches between his past traumas (“I know them men in the trenches \ That spinnin' and they do the militant work \ Woo, I got hit in my melon and it didn't hurt”) and being playfully ignorant (“I eat the pussy, I'm just quenchin' my thirst”).
Pain Provided Profit is not the best introduction to Conway the Machine’s music and perhaps not the boost Jae Skeese hoped for. Still it’s a nice slab of underground hip hop for those who are tired of 60-minute long Boom Bap albums.

I've pages to fill but very often I condense 'em all into a few lines or possibly in just a few words...
