Why I Write…
"I want to strip the flesh from spirit. I want to write the songs that people sing that inspire them to be fearless." quote from Manchild
Why do I write and recite words? To attempt to breathe meaning and significance from my fragile soul to the front porch of fellow humans habitat so they can eat my raps and say mmmm good. For the connection we all long for. To capture and invigorated moment of time. I try and write poetic expressions of human realities of questing for meaning, for God and for love. I write from my human being perspective seeking awareness of the great 'I am that I am' Being. I write to create space with english vocabulary and syntax structure for our beings to more fully be with the Being of all beings. Metaphors, imagery, word play to wake up our sleepy souls from numb existence to dance in the beautiful fields of discovery where sorrow and joy grow together like dandelions and clovers to enhance our connection to the great Being and stoke our fires of wonder and awe so to be purified by all the gifts we are able to touch, see, smell, taste and hear. I wrote to provoke mystical experiences with my ink stick to meditate on fascinating ways of the lily, the extraordinary event of photosynthesis, and the potency of the Nazarene servant king. I want to write to inspire…. Could I write anonymous like the Cloud of Unknowing author or do I need my name to be known by a few people?I write to responsibly Emajyn the goodness that will be with my stories and song. Why do you write?
