Zadown Posted December 2, 2002 Report Share Posted December 2, 2002 Was surfing through all sorts of old files and AM battle raports and AIM logs and whatnots, and found this: LordZadown: it's the images, man LordZadown: the visions LordZadown: the paintings done with words LordZadown: one picture is a thousand words, but one painted with a two dozen words is still a thousand words when you look at it again and again LordZadown: good text expands upon reading LordZadown: it is distilled LordZadown: the essence of what it describes (name removed): interesting view on this LordZadown: I just made it up LordZadown: but I'm still serious LordZadown: poems are a perfect example LordZadown: a few words - and you see a still moment (name removed): I know what you mean LordZadown: to write is to see visions and to distill the focus points out of it and write those out to others LordZadown: to draw the essence and the soul of the moment you are describing LordZadown: one can always extrapolate and deduct the things that are not needed LordZadown: "fir" says green, it says the smell of a forest, it implies squirrels somewhere LordZadown: but it is still a single word LordZadown: ... (name removed): squirrels??? LordZadown: perhaps LordZadown: perhaps not LordZadown: that depends on what else is written and who reads it (name removed): ... guess it does :-D Dunno. I kinda liked reading it. That's (still) how and why I write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peredhil Posted December 2, 2002 Report Share Posted December 2, 2002 YES! When just puffs of air, labial shaped vibrations, reach into hearts and minds and draw forth visions... That's when it's perfect. We do not write because we want to; we write because we have to. W. Somerset Maugham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendricke Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 This is just to say I have eaten the plums that were in the icebox and which you were probably saving for breakfast. Forgive me they were delicious so sweet and so cold. -William Carlos Williams Kendricke's Profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tralla Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the white chickens. - Also William Carlos Williams Translation: Great, what's your point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
