if you write for yourself...

12:47 PM

if you write for yourself
there is a danger that
you'll be misunderstood

if you write for others
  there is a danger
  that you'll be disliked
  or liked
  or misunderstood

but if you write for the
sake of writing
there is a danger
that you'll be liked

Thank you. ;) The bigger a batch of poems is, the better the chance is that there'll be something for everyone.

Yes, I like the simple ones that don't seem to go into abstractions and lala land. Like the one about housework or about simple words.

How utilitarian of you. Next thing you know, you'll want poems about tractors and collectivization.

Communism lives.

Pfft. Right. In your basement, probably. Use Lysol thoroughly.

AHAHAHA! Good idea. Get rid of pesky communist stains with new Commie-Off™.

AHAHAHA! Available in an imperialist capitalist multibillion dollar oil refinery near you.

Oil?! I've been mining spice melange for years. No wonder my economy is slumping!

Posted by Mike on October 22, 2004 1:32 AM

Tsk tsk tsk. You can drill into the ground for oil and not have to hand around those pesky sandworms.

Posted by Paul on October 22, 2004 1:59 AM

Ah, they eat everything, even the hand, when it is around.

Posted by Mike on October 22, 2004 3:15 AM

No, it has not. It hasn't paid anything! It became the equivalent of volunteer work.

Posted by Paul on October 22, 2004 3:48 AM

AAAHAHAHAHA. Well, at least it'll count towards your community service sentence.

Posted by Mike on October 22, 2004 11:15 AM
