/lit/ - Literature

after not writing so much recently. not thinking about things. not having so many conversations (real ones and in my head), i really believe thought weighs down your feelings, poetry is a product of the unconscious mind.

writing about something exorcises it from you. which is probably why humans started making art. the dogons were freeing themselves from scary spirits with those masks (picasso's demoiselles was an exorcising picture) - if you give thoughts a shape, you break free from them.

you think therefore you aren't.
