it might happen

March 7, 2021 by jude

What happened here is quite astounding to me. Even after all the history with this process. And that’s exactly what it is for really. To accustom my selves with the unexpected. Without worrying if it fits in. That is to grow in the moment of discovery. Which is often an uncovering. Or maybe more likely a result of seeing through.

Yesterday’s self. Yesterday has become very handy lately. In naming things. And today a way to reconsider them. I wish I could get back to video, because I need it right now. Still a fog hangs over me. Maybe just remnants of the snow melting. At season’s edge there is confusion as well as relief. And I am feeling all of it.

Sometimes, trying to explain is the most difficult part. There is often what seems like a disconnect between hand and mind. That is the bridge we need to build. And keep in good repair. The truth is in the going. And the value is in the acceptance of of how it might go. The creative act is not outside of you. Art does not create itself. An image does not form of it’s own accord.
