“It’s time…”

“With freedom's seed the desert sowing…”
Alexander Pushkin
Behold a Sower Went Forth to Sow Written in November 1823, first published posthumously. The ability to see dreams…
As for inspiration it stands on a completely different plane. This is grace, the acquisition of the Spirit, aimed at creativity, creative service. It is irrational in another sense: it cannot be caused by a conscious will, by a rational decision, it comes from the unconscious (according to Plato, it is sacred madness, “Mania”). But I distinguish between subconscious and superconscious. Inspiration requires the participation of both. So in Pushkin: “I dreamed of cute objects and my soul kept their secret image, after the muse revived them”… — this is the activity of the subconscious. “But let the Word divinely drop and on his harking ears fall lightly”… this is the perception of the superconscious. Every lofty inspiration comes from above: “breathed the living soul…”. It is charisma, grace, a good gift, a divine call. In this sense, the definition of poetic creativity is good: the ability to see dreams, and there are, of course, prophetic dreams, prophetic dreams, as well as funny dreams.
