For Need of Inspiration

For need of inspiration: 

for need of inspiration - as if the world wasn't present and invited to the page. There is always something to write of, always the topic of what this moments holds now, and how it offers itself in endless expressions of the world. I find myself inspired through patience, by silence, and allowing each world to appear in it's on spontaneous manner, sometimes in singular fashion, or perhaps an entire phrase comes offered to be written. My actual role is minimal. 

everything finds me here. 

the real skill is in waiting, to not rush the words on their appearance, giving eagerness to the process of allowing and  fill this creative void with my demands. The only sin is to become a writer, declaring myself all important to words and miss the point of simply listening, of abiding in the inspired silence that exist before the appearance of each word.

for need of inspiration - sit, be exactly as you are, breathe in, release, and wait. Nothing happens, there is no magical burst of energy, no enlightened whisper in the ear. Or maybe there will be. But none of this matters, inspiration is an inherent quality of the world, it's first breath of every morning, a glimpse of early sun light, or preparation of a cup of coffee. It's always present, through silence, and even in the anxious waiting for ideas to begin to flow. To be alive, again that first breath, is too be inspired. 

for need of inspiration - the world appears to fill this void. 

and so, infinitely inspired...we exist.
