What to do?

I feel like i'm on a creative streak. I want to be creative. So I sit down and try focusing on a craft. 

Only to figure out the work from my hands are far from reasonable in my mind. 

I feel that I can only be creative by telling a few jokes. But those jokes are not mine. Like this picture. 

I feel that I am only creative in some areas, and that is by oral tradition of stories. Something which is hard for me to spread around. 

I also feel like academia is stunting my creative growth. 

I feel like a lot of things, and it is pretty hard to focus creativly on one  thing right now. 

This is in no way a complaint, but really an observation. An observation I needed to explore.
