Journey

honesty
within the heart –

lucidity
within the mind –

understanding
within the soul:

madness on
paper as
seen by the
world.

This seems related to Pre Poet...?

If so, it seems that some sort of axiomatic construct is forming. I enjoyed the correspondence between 'honesty', 'lucidy', 'understanding' and 'madness' on the one hand and 'heart', 'mind', 'soul' and 'paper' on the other.

Terse but self-conscious. Reads a bit like a cook book recipe, too.

Interesting take on it... I was thinking something similar.

Thhanks guys. Actually what I was going for here is a formula for poetry. Granted it isn't an easy formula, but it is what I believe must be done in order to write poetry (the first three stanzas).  

>>This seems related to Pre Poet...?<<

It is. Both were written based on some six pages of stream of conciousness prose from my journal.
