The inner sanctumShow poetry

I write. Have written for years off and on. Each time I pick up the pen again I am reminded of the drive and obessession I'm subjected to when I start to write. It's frightening really, letting someone or rather something else take over. It may take a bit for the pen to fill, but once it's full, it has a mind of its own and I'm I'm needed for is to hold the darn thing. I have had issues w/my muse regularly. It (I've not discovered the gender of my muse yet) sometimes thinks it's really funny to dam the flow of creative juice (to which I'm highly addicted) until just before a deadline is to be met. Yeh. I'm a mess. One of my journal entries talks abt the cathartic effect of writing. Fortunately for me, that's figurative and not literal. Well, I welcome all and one, and one and all to pop in and browser my meager offerings and I in turn will reciprocate as time permits. I call 'em as I see them so I won't be matching score and applause as recieved necessarily.

Regards

  • Writing is fun, challenging, and cathartic for me. Sometimes stuff wells up that I don't know where it came from. Some, are not even the result of actual events in my life. Others are so entertwined with real life events that have occurred in my life, that I cannot but let it flow until the last urgent drop.
