Writing initiates the passage through the mental spectrum
of a fine-toothed comb.
Cornering statement,
A salvation escape in the breach of light that is taking shape
through an intimate pearling of ink between two virgin lines.
It creates sense and orients the soul, as the cuneiform wheel is set in motion.
It stretches arabesque curls and adorns the paper body
with superabundant patterns and crowns of pigments.

Merci à tous…
Committing thought to paper – or a screen – seems to me to have two effects.
For the better, it requires greater accuracy of formulation.
For the worse, it solidifies what should be fluid, creating a tyrant.
Unless one is very careful.

Tyranny is more attriibutable to our attachment to such a thought than to thought itself.
In this case, instead of inviting for extra carefulness, one would me more inspired to cultivate a form of carelessness.
We should also take into account the possibility that such an expression is not the result of the ‘author’, who can therefore be a mere conveyor…Often the surprised spectator of what comes out of his mind/pen/voice/hand/instrument.

It’s the attachment that creates the tyrant. We make our own gods and heroes.
Whence come thoughts? An impenetrable question, perhaps.
