On Writing - An Old Perspective on an Older Subject
before a blank blue-line page
the uneasiness washes over me in a tide
neurons flash
and i reach through Space and Time
to pluck out the crude chicken scratch letters
that form asymetrical blue patterns
on the paper
they are the blurry photographs of sensation
the insatiable mind's effort
to make its experiences and its sensations
problems and solutions
read and understood by all humanity
write to be believed and to be felt
strain, sweat over the formation of shapes
that are a beacon shedding divine light
on the very nature of ourselves
not everyone is an artist
but
not everyone is a poet.
