The Famous Writer Despairs

The famous writer despairs,

You can’t capture experience in words.
 

You can’t capture experience without words either.

 

You can’t capture experience.

You can’t even have experience.

 

You can only experience experience.

 

And you couldn’t do that without words.

 

Experiences are created by bodies in contact

with being.

Mind and memory and imagination

and language

mixing with things.

 

The unique moment

goes away forever as soon as it arrives.

 

The memory of the moment is always a new experience.
