The Process

At first, an idea emerges as a tiny niggling in my mind.

Then it begins to grow, and continues until I can think of nothing else.

The words tumble over and over in my mind, as I struggle to visualize just how I want to see them on paper.

Composing them into a beautiful structure becomes my obsession.

I look frantically for pen and paper as the words start falling from my head to my hand.

My penmanship, which I desperately try to keep uniform, goes by the wayside as I race to jot down my thoughts.

Once the ideas are purged from my thoughts to paper, I stare at the mess of words and scribbles.

And I am happy.

For I have created.
