Thoughts on Writer’s Block

21Dec10

“My words speak for themselves, and not for me, pursuing some incomprehensible agenda of there own; They come and go as they will, often stubbornly denying me even the illusion of control.”

A Triptych in Poetry, Prose and Parable

18Nov10

A machine follows static pattern, always the well worn path, without realizing that the pattern of the world is always dynamic, always under construction. This is the mystical: A true mind calls new pattern into existence without being trapped in the static pattern of the past, without being a machine.

Brief Thought #40

14Nov10

Sometimes I become entranced, mesmerized, by the shapes of our words on the page, the shape seen from a distance from which the words are no more than gray smudges, as if there is more to learned from the void space left over after everything that was to be said was said. I fantasize that if I had a proper hearing, a hearing that heard the silence surrounding the drone of everyone’s finely worded opinions, maybe here I would find the answers to those important questions, the longings of my soul that resist my words. Who knows who I could meet there – maybe you for the first time … maybe God finally unchained of my words, my theologies?

Note to Self #1

10Nov10

I must cure myself of the useless need of receiving confirmation that I have been heard, that my Point of View has been noted … put the words out there and then move on to other words.
