"Excuse me, I have a meeting of Godless infidels next door"

Right now I'm weighing the importance of spoken word vs. word written. Obviously, word written is going have a more literate quality. You can pretty much say anything you want with the paper and pen because in that moment that's all you're saying it to. Spoken word is different. Words, when spoken out loud, are music. They have volume and pitch and timbre. And music has the ability to find us and move us and lift us up in ways that literal meaning can't. It's visceral and it's harder and it's more impressive in some aspects but there's also far more room for error or ommision of something you wanted to say or needed to say that you'll never have when it's just the pen in paper. It's so much easier to misspeak than to miswrite. I'm just trying to figure out which is better. It seems the moments anticipate the most become the most mundane when they finally happen to you. And the ones you never expect creep in and take on a greater importance than you were ever ready for. Surprises, surprises. Sometimes it's better to be uncomfortable.
