There is an aspect of being unmasked, revealed as who we are that surely adds to discomfort - pain - as well as what arises from the stories we feel need to be told. If this was painless and easy, everyone would do it. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-45453707367381471092012-07-17T09:01:45.880-07:002012-07-17T09:01:45.880-07:00oooh, I like your blog, Marylynn.

And I also found that, for me, the truth hurts. All of my best stories came wrenching out of me. Writing with truth is painful. I always wondered if it was so with other writers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03214042983360642698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-59508164468604498362012-07-17T09:01:23.779-07:002012-07-17T09:01:23.779-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03214042983360642698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-66891474343995038862012-07-15T11:57:40.445-07:002012-07-15T11:57:40.445-07:00Angella - Thank you.

And then the words, impressions, colors come; words find each other together in new ways, like automatice writing or taking dictation from the subconscious. Then I see the green in the green, the spiraling DNA all the way back to the source. Poetry (good poetry) is the cosmic dance. I look to poetry to tear down, break apart, heal and transform. Most vulnerable of art forms, poetry gives us the innards, the guts, the living and wavering light.beth coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290135595711572noreply@blogger.com
