Why I Write

Location

I'll describe the light:

It is good,

For under my Sun,

I've built the earth

In my mind's vision,

And its inhabitants act

To my discretion.

Come, I'll be the guide;

See it in my eyes;

See my statement upon the word--

See my statement about the world.

To you, it is fiction;

To me, a mirror--

A mirror which reshapes,

But shows the same,

For here inscripted

Upon a tome, upon paper,

I rewrote the world,

In my own image.
