Writing is so much about
seeing the words, the constellations,
the points of light against the black sky,
the mind’s eye of unconsciousness
Knitting the words into the tapestry,
the fabric they were meant to be
gossamer wings and steely gravitas
blended or plucked from the ether, the air
Such is the process of inspiration
finding the words, already stitched together
woven tight with strong bonds
phrases and thoughts tied together
Already formed, ready to be discovered
for those who are open
gathered in imagination
seen and printed onto the page
