Avoidance
Avoidance Paraphrase of a quote from James Baldwin: One's writing is a reflection of one's private life. The writer can only reveal to the world what he is willing to face about himself. Avoidance written November 29th, 2020 There are things in my life that you know are present only by the lack of light illuminating them. This is a tendency I come by honestly as my father was a master. My frantic avoiding creates voids in my world that turn into black holes sucking everything towards them until that which has been avoided for so long that thing I would do anything to erase becomes the primary theme in my life what energy I have is spent maintaining the dreaded void. We are defined by what we are what we do and by what we avoid. Where do I want to spend my energy? |

Some poems are more poetic than others. I've been trying to write each day, or revise something I've written. I also write down when something I am reading seems interesting. Now I have pages of ideas and pages of poems. It sort of amazes me that I am writing again, and how much is in my notebook. Better in my notebook than tumbling around in my head lol. Thank you for reading.

My therapist said stuff is coming up for me because the mind gets tired of avoiding it as we get older. Why not blog about it, hash it out, and try to put it behind you? That's what I did with most of my demons.

That’s the best outcome possible for you. Writing down ideas and feelings and thoughts no matter how random. I grew up in my own world as a way of coping with the nightmare that was my childhood. My imagination never shuts down. That has its downside but I work with it Please keep up the great work! My name is MrWrong and I approved this comment
