Why do I write??

No, really- 

                                          why do I write? 

Why do i take this paper and this pen,          this now and this then, 

                       and put down my thoughts?

I supposed it is riveting to find,           that according to my mind, 

I am merely inches away from meaning, 

                     a scribble from discovery, 

                     just one metaphor more towards connection

.....

Yet,

 when I come to transcribe my feelings,    I struggle to find anything that is revealing

the way things really are -         

                                              -or can be

 The works that I create, the things that I make 

are only shadows of what’s inside of me

Thing called writing, 

                it is merely a symbol, 

                                   a type 

                                           creating, making, moving people with pure poetry. 

Those things in my head - are replacements instead

See the world trhough my  perception of reality

I write to remember, 

                                (I always forget)

I write for attention, 

                              (that’s not what I’ll get)

I write for expression

                              (I get muddied poetry)

I write for reflection

                            (that’s all that I’ll be) 

I  write a new each time, 

Some with perfection,           -some with insecurities

But each time I do-

                                                                  I just see a new and different me

The thing is 

                (with writing)

                                  Is we never write what is really there

We merely jot down our perspective

                                                              Analyze, 

                                                                          think, 

                                                                                   compare

Whatever you call it

                                   We are moments in these

This thing called writing is moments

                                         moments of endless possibilities

Y’know, that makes me think of something, actually.

So if you’re one of those “I can only write when I feel Inspired™” type of writers but you never seem to feel very inspired, and all of the usual “You have to make a schedule and stick to it and sit down and write XYZ words per day” writing tips have never worked for you and only make you feel guilty but you have no idea why,

have you perhaps considered that you might be neurodivergent / mentally ill / have a chronic health condition, and that what you call “inspiration” is what the rest of us call “spoons”?

B/c that is exactly what happened to me.

I haven’t been able to find it since, but I read an article ages and ages ago that said:  There is no such thing as writer’s block.  What we call “writer’s block” is what the medical community refers to as “depression.”

And I went, “Huh.”

Your mother

Your mother is filled with rivers

She opens your bedroom door

Gorges your skin

Words icy rocks

Seeping into your cracks

Erosion comes over

Actions too strong

try keeping water resistant 

Opinions carefully 

picking yourself until-

FOOM

Burst open

The Floodgates spill

LOUD LOUD LOUD

overcoming my eardrums

Drown your heart

It's so funny to me when you can clearly see that someone just moved from a different sm to tumblr and they have yet to learn about enyrhing about the site, like insta artist will try to add a crop piece when tumblr doesn't need that, or Twitter people that speak in short paragraphs and censor names in the posts with letters and numbers. Amusing

Random newcomer: K4rl and S4pn4p are so quirky
Me: I like your accent funny guy

newcomer: sorry for spamming your blog with likes and reblogs!

me: no worries, nobody cares about that here

new rando: oof sorry abt that long post you guys, I just needed to rant

me: bestie that was a 400 letter post

It's a testament to how awful other social media sites are when Tumblr is the sane place now.

this is why spaces on the internet have as much to do with geography as normal history geography does

It's so funny scrolling through the AF tag and being like, "ope, there's Phoenix... there's Cry... oh! Fox and Blue! There's Victoria, and then there's Wee, Stace, Tarchey, and Lottie... ooh, Gaby and Nat too! Aw cool, Anju and Louis also :)"

We're all just neighbours in a building complex

Who's coming to the block party tonight? I'm bringing chocolate cake and potato casserole.

It would be hilarious to throw a virtual block party somehow. Or a sleepover. We Could all angry watch the Artemis Fowl movie over discord!

Lol this makes me want to make more Artemis fowl content to get invited to the party

I have the ability to play the guitar and speak the gnomish! That's gotta be cool lol
