broken jade figurine

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2000.12.20

In an especially gifted moment, I managed to break one of the two little jade figurines from Woodside that I kept after Grandpa's death. I just tossed the container on the dresser without thinking. I heard a 'chink', and sure enough, one of them is cracked right through the legs. How depressing.

A creative person would prefer their music to be stolen and enjoyed than ignored. This is the dilemma for every creative soul: he or she would prefer to starve and be heard than to eat well and be ignored.

—Pete Townshend
