The source of ideas

The source,
the subconscious,
the maker of dreams,
the life you have lived,
drifting up in thought
to give you ideas.

Creativity unforced,
unchained,
free flow,
ready-made lines
that grow.

The best of them
are free,
all they need is a pen
and a mind
to be.

Great Lauren. I feel you have expressed the power of the subconcious in our lives well. I have spent a lot of time thinking about and attempted some writing about these ideas.
Well done! I look forward to reading more.
I would be interested to get you opinion of my poem Manicarus (written when I was manic and the normal filters to my unconscious were set to off)
Thanks,
Alan

This is great. The source of all topics is to me the most revealing of all topics. Great work, Lauren.

You express very clearly the situation that i have often been in. Lots to express but how do the thoughts come together ? For me it is through art, where for you it is poetry ( though I suspect the accompanying fractal suggests it may also be through visual art just as much as through the pen.)

I must admit that I never found that ideas just come together, though it has come more easily since I got involved in mindful meditation.

Keep up the good work

I've heard meditation helps too. Nice writing with smooth delivery.
