A Creation Begging To Be Born

Written today:
"Sometimes...
I can feel
my red
"creation begging to be born"
light...
flashing dimly...
somewhere inside of me...
It is giving me notice...
a poem...or other creation...
is available to me...
if I focus in
on retrieving it...
before it skitters away...
Noticing this throbbing light...
as dim as it may be sometimes...
is an important part...
of the creative artist's
repertoire of skills...
Noticing...then taking time out
from other pursuits...
to do something about it......"
