When I sit down to write but can't quite get the meaning to arise, it (the hard to express in words) is my biggest foe; but, if -- usually -- I do end up getting it right, it's more fulfilling.

I'm talking abstract -- not music specifically. Music is something that, sometimes, you can't just write about. You really just need to listen to it. I'm talking about conveying the ineffable, like music, in written form.

Thanks for the reply!

I think I get what you're saying. If "it" were easy to put into words, what would be the point, eh?

...which is why the end of it says "ally", eh?

Tsk tsk.

I meant no harm. I apologize.
