Muse

I've been distracted, excited. I even go to bed at night willing myself—daring—to dream about it.

Now, I see the scattered bits and pieces, free-floating and ephemeral, seemingly random even as they begin to gather, merge. It's taking shape; nebulous edges coalesce then cleave—sharp, defined. I can almost give it a name and try to define it.

I understand its inner conflict—oh, sadly so, I know it all too well. Still, I'm inspired to tell the story...even that ugly, unfortunate segue.

Or perhaps I am inspired because of it....

Time will tell.

Very nice. This post occupies the space somewhere between poetry and the visual arts. I read it a few times. I'm not 100% sure of what you are saying, but I love the way you say it!

Don't you just hate when people are deliberately cryptic. LOL

Truth is, I think I've a very workable/credible plot for some serious writing this winter. I'm already in the process of doing my "homework" for the project. Dan's been a huge help. I'm sure I'll be picking his brain quite a bit.

We'll see what shakes out.
