The Word is alive. All these marks and scratches, lines and dashes make up the written word and provide a complex web of multidimensional interactions. Of course, the spoken word, a child of air and breath has its own ultimatums. But the written text is a kind of tissue. The writer must regard this tissue as sentient, an archetypal manifestation of the living sacred. As each word is matted and knotted into a complete and complex yarn, it becomes a multi-textured fabric made up of threads and filaments that are alive and ever-evolving. In the American cultural landscape, especially within the last generation or two, in-depth communication has devolved somewhat. Many of the subtleties and nuances of the written and spoken word have eluded the younger generation. The language has been devalued and its immense power to create an array of possible worlds has been forgotten but speaking and bespelling the world into being according to one's deepest soul imperatives is a skill that can be acquired. We can remember the dis-re-membered world back into being, recalling and reimagining a gleaming and wondrously alive language that is still at the tips of our tongues and fingers.
