Not a doubt in my mind. The text is probably too dramatic. I wanted it to be poetic like I always do, with picture and text going hand in hand to form one thing stronger than the picture and the text separately could be, that is my style of working.

I'm both a writer and a draftsman and especially write/make poetic prose, where half of the poem is the text and half is the picture. But I seem to have failed this time; it's like everyone is focusing on the text, not the picture. I didn't think that people would think so much about the text as something that is happening to me, but, yes, of course, I couldn't beforehand know that. My thinking was only to make a poem and choose this as a subject. I put lots of work into this picture, many hours, trying new things so for me I failed in a way cos everybody seems to stop at the text, not the picture and the text as one work, prose, but a personal story.

But at the same time, it's good to know that people care about me and my health. But being fighting illness now for the last couple of years, I'm more thinking about trying to take that fight and make work out of it but not telling people about my illness that I have mostly kept to myself.

So in a way, I feel like I have failed because nobody commented on the picture where I have been posting it and the prose. But one is always learning and this teaches me to be more cherfol if I use my own life as a subject for my work. But this fight I have been fighting, of course, gets most of my focus being that bad as it has been, but at the same time, I don't just what to look at it that way; I want to try to use it as a creative force, not be sulky about it but an inspiration, at least that is how I feel today. And in this picture, I was trying to make this "blob" in my lung somehow as a living entity, I individual, one thing whit a mind and a mission, not just some formless blob in my lung.

But on the other hand. Maybe I'm reading the reaction wrong. Perhaps the text would have been weak, like a sulking sad story that people would just skip and pass by, and the real thing is that the combination of these two, the prose and the picture is why I'm getting the reaction that I'm getting even thou folk to address the illness but don't remember anything about the movie. Probably it would not fit to say "hi, great picture" when the subject is what it is.
