you make me want to write something beautiful. something like honey that drips on the lips, golden and sweet and precious as amber- or perhaps decadent frosting made of buttercream, fresh vanilla- constantly stirring the wrist, stirring the mind, must fill the tongue with sugar and patience. but how does one write that something? how do these letters and commas and gathered dots (ellipses) coalesce, rise, reach 415°F without collapsing in on themselves, or worse- growing doughy and sickly and peaking too early and too late? .... could you teach me how to make, how to bake, this beautiful food for the soul?

so much inspiration and so little time- after all, the most important part of art is patience, and who has the time for that?
