I think we all secretly want to have words so powerful
that they explode the hearts and minds of others
I know I do
I spend my days obsessing
what to write?
what to write?
and then today
it hit me
I think I have the question wrong
I cannot force words
anymore than I can force the sun to shine
and while there are days that I'd like to do both
I think instead of making it happen
I'll just let it be
You see writing writes me
inspiration happens in an instant
hibernation in a flash
round and round we go
maybe there need not always be an explosion
maybe I should just get over myself
maybe I should just write
