I'm of the opinion that poetry, like many other forms of artistic expression, so-called "art for art's sake", is an exercise in self-therapy.it sucks having all this contentment- ive got nothing to write about!
It's a way of analysing and healing psychic injury. When I was coming to know myself, I would write compulsively. I'd be awoken at 5am with ideas that were burning in my brain. Now I have no inclination to do so, whatsoever. (I'm healthier and more self-aware).
That "sun inside you, burning your gut", is the source of creative inspiration....and peptic ulcers.
Yes. Perfectly expressed.And we write ourselves until our words write us.
