OctPoWriMo: To Feel as a Writer

Yūgen is a Japanese word pertaining to a profound awareness of the universe which evokes feelings that are inexplicably deep and too mysterious for words.



Word Prompts: Seascape, Harmony, Galactic

From MorgueFile

To Feel as a Writer

Remember,
this is how it feels...

Upon the galactic seaside,
where the universe rolls away
and the sea gulls glide
upon celestial breezes
the seascape is real.

That's quite the picture
I can image,
while sitting on the deck 
of the largest space cruise liner
ever built,
sipping Martian Martinis.

It's not hard to picture
images such as these,
as writer
it is an exercise in the everyday
Far too many people would call it 
daydreaming,
I would not.
For me its planning.

Something about being connected,
have an extra sense,
not like ESP,
although that could come in handy
when I play the lottery tonight.
When you are in harmony
with the universe.

In the whole of the whole,
all of the universe,
what a writer sees
can make up a universe.
So crucial
to find a balance
with the scared
with the profane
in a dance as elegant of the creation of everything.
Its what a writer feels
when they feel the right world
universe,
Yūgen.
