Flow

Flow is when
you wake up early with lucid dreams 
about your favorite project
On waking up you continue where
you left off from the dream
translate visuals and visions
to words, phrases, paragraphs, pages.


Flow is when
it is past dinner time
you are watching a maestro perform
and compelled to try
A humble attempt yet
a feat he could accomplish
through persistence, practice, practice, practice.


Flow is when
the night is young no more
but you attempt heroically
what he played with such elegance
you begin humbly and mindfully
just repeating the notes a hundred times
till your hand moves without volition


and finally strikes the right chord
on the instrument, and in YOU.
