I have to be formless to write; dissolved to paint; non-existent to create. It's always a risk.
But an aesthetic operates. The aesthetic, way of shaping, what negotiates the creative forces and the tools, the diverse & complex language structures, the brush of paint by a sable brush on canvas, how far the back will bend in the speed of the movement, offers structure to the emerging poem or painting or dance.
It's like trying to hold a sail in a high-force wind.
Sometimes we just can't make it.
Sometimes we do.
