Active Imagination Notes 01

Sometimes I sit down and say,
Kassandra,
you need to write.
And she says back to me,
"Why."
No question mark;
an emphatic contest.
and I say, "Because, you need to be
smart
or at least make people believe you have
a Beautiful Mind."
She says,
"But I don't
have a thing to say,
and you know you're not
very intelligent anyway.
Why don't you just stop
trying to be
Her?"
