Write Into the Wild of Bafflement

"I write to work things out. I write to concentrate, to feel a sense of purpose rise up in me. I enjoy the struggle of making anew object to present to the world, a gift made from scratch - whole, unique, edible as bread. I like moving, word by word, toward a sense of discovery, toward an awareness of self, a curious, energetic, intelligent, sacred, baffling, depthful, heartful self." - Dorianne Laux from Red Thread, Gold Thread. The Poet's Voice

How do you imagine your journey into the wild of discovery?

Do you write to create a "gift made from scratch"?

During the writing process, do you sense an awareness of Self?

Write into the wild of bafflement.
