Why Write?
by Mark Olynyk
it is written
writing is the great escape
a craft of the intangible
writing is a compulsion
like a disease
writing is free
but still costs something
writing is inhuman
a necessary evil
writing is fun
the sum of all thought
the writer in the social sense
does not exist
write a poem
save the world
in dribs and drabs…
