Hazy Acres: The Creative Practice of Ryan Boos

#700

Why haven’t you started writing yet 

I don’t want to write 

But I do 

So I am 

Trying 

Do you need to try 

Good question 

I must ask what am I trying for then 

Yes

Or 

You do 

Or not do 

There is no right way 

In this moment 

You can continue 

I don’t want to write 

My hands are still trying 

As I am typing this 

Now 

While I think 

I could stop 

I am not stopping 

No question will change that

Until I feel not to write 

Then what 

I will write 

Now what 

And it will be so 

But nothing can force this 

You just sit down 

Its there

These words are not the point 

The actions 

Rhythm

Discipline 

Devotion 

Loyalty 

Joy 

And on and on 

Will show up in the world 

For me 

As I am practicing 

These lines 

This faith 

This time 

One can never know 

So why know anything 

I will write
