Writer Manifestations

I call the muses to me.

I call creativity to me.

I call acceptance to me.

I am a wellspring of creative potential.

I weave stories with skill.

I am a writer - I am enough.

A darkness gathered in his eyes until it filled them.

letting go is harder when everything reminds me of her—

the slender curvature of her fingers, or

the way her pink blushing glow lights up her face, or

her big big big brown eyes.

i’ll hear a song and want to send it to her in the mail.

i was thinking about her the other night

not just her, but how much i want her.

i want to hold her hand and kiss her lips

and the slow aching is destroying me.

and when this is over,

this,

we’ll pretend like nothing happened.

i will live in my head and imagine that she is still wise and i am still naive.

no college. no graduation. no disappointment, no tears.

i’ll imagine how it used to feel

to hold her hands

and to hug her, feel her warmth

how it used to feel

to rest on her shoulder

waiting ever so patiently for something to go wrong.

Writing fanfiction is just as good as writing to a prompt.

Both help you exercise your brain muscle, expand your horizons, take different perspectives and practice how to use literary devices effectively.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

I do not sit down at my desk to put into verse something that is already clear in my mind. If it were clear in my mind, I should have no incentive or need to write about it. We do not write in order to be understood; we write in order to understand.
