The Art of vulnerability

the art of vulnerability
is the power of authenticity
within a spirit of possibility

where I am nothing but coal
and everything of diamond

gentle flame child
creative breath

cut of panic
ego shattered
make myself safe
by the power of conviction
claim the space
for my mind

to become
bondservant
to my heart

Wow, this is so powerful. It got me thinking about the role of ego or lack thereof in the process of Creativity. I recently went to a Birthday party of a writer friend of a friend. I left feeling like the evening had been dominated by egos. People getting up to say speaches presumably about their friend, but who'd used it as a stage for their own creativity. It doesn't seem to me that good Creatives are necessarily always persuing egolessness. I wonder about this as a contradictory observation, because it seems to me that the egoless state allows for creativity to flow in.
