at the end of the day
Poetry is
a job of work
~~30~~ |
writer’s block
you fraud
you poor excuse for
my own laziness, be off!
fly,
you projection
of my insecurities,
haunt me no more.
A writer writes
a poet does poetry.
Subject, predicate.
Subject, predicate
subject, verb, object
subject, verb, object
the poem grows
sentence by sentence,
subject predicate.
sentence by sentence
the poem grows
a job of work,
the work of a poet
a skilled worker of the craft.
Is it good?
Is it great?
Maybe yes.
Maybe no.
Finish it
then we’ll talk
subject, verb, object
the poem grows under
the poet’s hand
in spite of laziness
in spite of fear
a job of work
the work of a poet
