“Only connect!”
E.M. Forster, Howard’s End
Because there’s joy in the process.
In tippy-tapping,
thinking,
counting,
grappling.
Because time doesn’t pass and
there’s no body;
leaping in the flow
straight from bed.
Because
attention.
Adrenaline.
Play.
Because it’s easier
than a song,
quicker
than a book.

Flow state? Or poesy? I’m being introduced to many list-based exercises recently that are making it easier to chock open the door to inspiration/unleash writing

E.g. make a list of your favourite words (at least 10). Write each word at the top of a separate page. Over the next 10 days, fill those pages one at a time with your ideas relating to each word. Dig the resulting treasure for poem ideas!
