Why I Write, Part x+214: The Zombie's Hobby

Being hit over the head by inspiration
Is like being accosted by golden retrievers,
Going down under the furry licks of flame,
Sudden but ultimately uplifting.

Tripping and falling into inspiration
Is like falling headfirst into infatuation.
It pushes everything else in life aside,
A beautiful inconvenience.

Pursuing the ultimate end of inspiration
Is like undertaking a scientific investigation,
Following a logical, but not always linear, path
To the newfound, ancient unexpected.

Writing is all of the best parts of life
Without the exertion required to live.
It is, more or less, a zombie's hobby.
