It finally came to me. I finally wrote a poem that wasn't required. I was "sleeping" on my desk when it happened. It scared me. I almost thought I wouldn't be able to write it down. I had no paper. I finally found soome. The words kept coming and coming, for once they wouldn't stop. Only three lines required real thought, the rest just came to me. Later I'll post it on Dragon's Breath.
I guess I figured out why I stopped writing poetry. I don't write when I'm particularly depressed or happy. Yea it does happen when I'm down. I write because a decision needs to be made. I need to make a decision so I write out these poems to sort of self-answer my own questions.
I guess I believed when I was young that God had "written" out everyone's life and sort of just inscribed it into our minds. In that inscription, is everything we ever need to know. The answer to two plus two is already inscribed, we just have to "learn it" or bring it out into conciousness. It is more or less then parameters or our personality. I have the answers to all my questions. We all do. Its just a matter of bringing it out of that inscription. Poetry is just one of my mediums.
