To my dearest Silent Hawk,
Why do you write?
What draws you to this art?
How do you make the words flow
from mind to paper?
What makes you want to write?
What is your inspiration?
Why do you choose the words you do?
Love always,
The Famous Reese Bailey

To The Famous Reese Baily,
I wirte to express myself, but more so to free my soirit and soul from the grips of that which would bind it. The ability to totally make myself as vulnerable as I choose or not is the greatest fredom of this form of expression.
I simply just write from the heart, and mix with equal parts sincerity, love and an occassional dose of bs. To understand mysef when I am in conflict maes me want to write. So that I may find that elusive peace that we all seek daily.
My inspiration has and is love. Rather it is love of life, or an aspect thereof. Oftentimes, a love of another, that enables poetic verse to spring forth.
I do not know that I choose the words as much as they just rise up from within. Sometimes in the polishing stage, I may choose one to convey a particular image or meaning. I endeavor to make you feel as I feel. For when I write, whatever emotion springs forth is the one I write in. For example in a sad poem, I am normally at the keyboard crying.
Niaish for your questions, Blessed Be
Silent Hawk
