Words Heal

'Big Minds
Big Things
Creative anxiety
Poets folk
Artistic authors
Scientists

Simply studying
Big Creatives
Philosopher
Nervous
Breakdown

'Small ray of light?
French historians
Reading Wordsworth
Attuned emotions
Lifted anxiety

Insomniac
Out of sync
Creativity flourished
What rich ideas
Work of a sleeper?

Emily Dickenson
Phobias
Housebound
Undistracted
Time to write

Ditto Charles Darwin
For decades

Sigh, smile and say
Be that as it may
Allow intensity to overflow...'

- word maze from 'First We Make the Beast Beautiful' by Sarah Wilson, (2017), 166-167.

A veritable flood is opening the gates.
