At times I have happy ideas,
Ideas suddenly happy, in among ideas.
And the words in which they naturally shake free…
After writing, I read …
What made me write that?
Where have I been to find that?
Where did that come to me from?

It is better than me …
Shall we have been in the world,
at most pen and ink?
With which somebody writes
properly what we here jot?

-Fernando Pessoa
