The hardest part of writing

To be broken into a book
the silence, the brilliance,
as words become pictures,
and authors, gods.
To write well, one must read,
imagine, breathe.
and bend words into pictures.
How do I influence
images in another’s mind
if that isn’t a chore for
supernaturals?
It’s the careful coding
of alphabets into
fictional history
Or facts into fun tales.
It is the diving into words
one may never come out of
