Is it a skill
a talent,
the guiding light of fate,
or just blind luck?
I simply sit
and start to write
oft times unsure
of where the words will take me
and just as frequently
I guide them myself
but either way
as leader
or follower
I am slave to the words
A servant to their whims
and yet a happy one
content with my lot
and honoured
in my service
my duty to share
whatever the words share
with me

I began to understand early in my youth that creativity is a force, one which we can marvel if we allow it to take its course. But we cannot guide it ourselves. It is an entity - a spirit of its own.

I've often felt that what may come from these moments (in various forms of creativity) are elements which express themselves, where I am (happily) it's instrument. The words/notes/images already exist. It is just time for them to become manifest.

We are all equal this way, because each of us has this gift, if we allow it to live. Imagine if the whole world was willing to share for the well being of the other...

Yes, we all have that gift, and expressing can be as joyful as it is cathartic...
