A friend and I were traveling home late on the M train, bleary-eyed and quiet after hours of cacophony and fire-escape-sitting and eating until we were just about to burst, and as the train coasted over bushwick and williamsburg and sent across the east river, we discussed the seemingly inevitable lethargy of summer, the promise to work on projects that excite us, the consistent disappointment, the feeling that motivation seemed difficult to grasp when we weren’t chased by school deadlines. I thought about the idea of the “muse,” some divine female thing that arrives to a lost (male) artist to grace him with inspiration. I decided it was dumb. For me, motivation, or inspiration, or whatever, has never been full of light or divine or womanly, though that all seems nice. It’s always been some sort of wild creature you can spot looking out from the woods: it’s feral and fearful and monstrous and beautiful: it’s a capricious, wild thing, but every now and then with a little patience and coaxing it just might approach and eat from your palm.
