In fact, yes, I do feel the same way, however, in my profession I work in, which is Literature/Poetry.
I am actually writing a second poem regarding the ignorance of people who treat Art and Literature as different instead of equals.
"The Soliloquy to Literature" in my gallery is a very short piece regarding this matter and you might enjoy reading it.
Yes, I do feel like this all the time, in my work, as if being pushed away. I thank you very much for making this photo!
Maybe one day I will have you make an illustration, if interested, of something somewhat like this, but to Literature.
The form is dying. My goal as a poet and writer is to help revive it.
Here is an excerpt from my second poem:
“For Poetry’s sake and sustenance,
Let this page to its new renaissance!
On each ready hoof, place a shoe:
Change begins with imprints in the soot,
By leaving fools’ feet behind to go barefoot;
In doing so, let us say in unison, adieu!
But not to the poet, not to his form;
Greet and welcome him back to the norm.”
P.S. Pardon my longwinded reply. This piece you made makes allot of sense to me.

Thanks for commenting. It wasn't meant to be a spiritual thing. I should have actually done the shot at my workplace, the place where I'm frustrated the most! I figured yelling from the top of a mountain conveyed the emotion of frustration I was/am feeling.
