No, it is more the thinking
The thinking of the thoughts
Which will turn into the writing
First off; how to create my thoughts
Then how to hold onto them
In anything like an authentic way
To catch the meanings and the feelings
Sitting quietly, comfortably
Listening to brainwave sounds
Through high-quality stereo headphones
Is one sure way for thoughts to arise
Actually for thoughts to propagate relentlessly
The very attempt to quieten your mind
Is the perfect way to build
A van der Graf generator of thoughts
But how to capture them
How to hear them to fulfilment
How to recall them, or store them
When and where to write them down
For in the darkness, or stillness
Of your meditation sitting
Your do not disturb sign
May prohibit your writing
All left then is to use a mantra
Chant out these inner thoughts
To your otherwise silenced self
Until your thoughts firmly become fixtures
