"It started with feeling demotivated about the simplest things which used to bring me joy. Like opening letters and reading them. Like going out for a run. Like putting down in #writing an idea I had just before I went to sleep."

"You can put out your hand and something will appear inside it – just because you say so. You can transmit that feeling you’ve had which you’ve not quite been able to understand before. #Writing a poem feels like grasping towards truth, a process of wonder and discovery."

[The Type @TheTypeReview]

This fine #ThursdayMorning we're loving this piece by @ceciliaknapp:

"#Poetry is a language of dreams, where anything is possible. There is no “wrong” answer. You can float in a poem, or fly, you can bring back the dead."

Seven reasons for giving books at Christmas:

Books are easy to chose, to buy, to pack, to post
Books show thought on the act of the giver
Everyone likes a book of some kind
You can write your name in a book
Books outlast other presents
Books are decorative
Books are cheap

Books received today - many.
Books sold today - many.
Books dropped on foot - one.
Expletives internalised - many.

"And the most painful part of practising #poetry, and an extension of that early work, you have to share your writing with others."

“Poetry is emotion put into measure. The emotion must come by nature, but the measure can be acquired by art.”
