By that I mean... unless the topic strikes some nerve or I am in a rare mood, I will write what I consider a "good poem", but not feel anything, or associate any meaning with it other than I'm trying to make a good piece of writing.

Kinda why I've not been bothering. But never hurts to try

I never really experienced that myself, writing without an internal stirring of some kind; artistic inspiration really is just our own internal musings that become so strong we must convey them, in order for cathartic release. In my case, I need to find the right track to write to, if not I find it difficult to write. I heard Zygote listened to 10 Canibus tracks at once for inspiration, lol, that's an amusing image to conjure. But, yeah try to find that spark that helps keep your ideas flowing, while keeping a calm heart, which is essential to not worrying and taking too long overthinking one line. Keeps the mental processes not stagnated, so our CPU's work better.
