MARY MACKEY ON CREATIVITY

You are invited to read the latest installment to Marsh Hawk Press' "Chapter One Project," an essay on creativity by Mary Mackey. It begins with
My memories go back a long way, too long to be true, people tell me. And yet they are there, stored in a wordless space in my mind, because they came before words, existing in a place that someday I will come to understand is the source of my poetry, perhaps the source of all poetry. It is a country without borders, a place without language, a universe that has not yet been talked into being.
