What happens when every image becomes a cliche? No one has had an original thought in years, what makes you think you are any different? Sculpting language so meticulously, like you're the first to compare to seasons. I bet you write about writing, too. Pathetic. Love is not a feeling, it's a force. The words write themselves and purely use you as a vessel. Somewhere back in time we did a seance of sorts and now sometimes poetry drops in like a demon, possessing the mind which tells the hand to pick up a pen. Demons, whatever that means to you, do not answer demands. They play their own game, which we are indeed a part of, though we were never invited to play.

A Desire for Demons
