A revolutionary idea begins with a creative
notion. In John Locke’s An Essay on Human Understanding, he states:
Wherever there is sense or perception, there some idea is, actually produced,
and present in the understanding…we [have], as has been proved, no ideas at
all, but what originally come either from sensible objects without, or what we
feel within ourselves, from the inward workings of our own spirits, of which we
are conscious to ourselves within.
Below, is a poem I wrote a while ago to illustrate a similar consciousness that involves an appreciation of the Source of inspiration:
A Creation
With every minute
With every minute
the mighty
sculptor
molds, shapes me
into that which
will
inevitably become
the fulfillment
of my dreams.
His Promise.
And I feel
the designated
pliancy
of wondrous
hands,
the angst
of sorrow
and pain
blending
into sculpted
reality
of laughter and
joy,
humility
I, one loving
creation
of the Almighty
Artist.
