What is it to write?

July 17, 2013

What is it to write?

It’s taking a word

Generally, afterwards

Adding some more

Letting them stew in a juice made of mind,

Putting some in the foreground and others behind

Adding a sentence and taking another,

And then thinking whether it was all worth the bother.
