Max Reif - The Blank Page and the Poet's Mission

Max Reif - The Blank Page and the Poet's Mission

The blank sheet of paper br is always a new beginning, br a chance to create the world again, br br repudiate memory, br right all wrongs, br br dethrone Intellect br and dunk him three times br in the Lake of the Heart br till he laughs, br br write the world br the way you know it ought to be br so that when you lift br your pen and your face, br it really iwilli be different, br and even br br create a Golden Scripture br that will transform br everyone who sees it br and put us finally br all on the same page br forever. br br And the amazing thing is br that you actually iattaini br all that sometimes, br and you know when you've done it, br it's not just some kind of delusion, br br it's a genuine br change of the metaphysical br and molecular state of everything. br br But then cooling or something br begins to set in, br it's not the same as it was, br br and you realize br you're gonna have to do it again.
