Why Do I Write Topicals?

[EtH]

Really appreciate it man and I agree with the majority of it. I really don't usually do "commentary" pieces which I'd describe this as. I'm usually more of an imagery/storyteller kind of guy. You're in a room, what do you see, feel, smell etc. I think I said over on RB that I'd be happy if people could enjoy this the whole way through (which they seem to) because I know someone has to work their ass off to get me to enjoy a "real talk" piece. I'm usually not too interested in what someone actually thinks or if their topical is coming straight from them. I prefer something new, a story we haven't heard before in a location that's been completely painted by the words you know?

So yeah I completely get your points and there's a chance I'd think the same from an outside view. You probably will see me doing whatever the complete opposite of this is in future and sacrificing rhyme schemes a lot of the time and never speaking from my perspective, and more from the perspective of a character I created. I was actually writing a few years ago for a topical finale and no showed cause I had "narrated" like 4 topicals in a row and couldn't stand the thought of giving an "overview" again.

With the amount I just posted you can obviously see I got a lot of the feedback :D This was intended to be a "shaking off the rust" piece but I'd be overselling myself if I said this was me being lyrically or wordingly (ironic) rusty.
