Why I Write
I don't write for them
The world is not my audience
These lines are not gems
Poetry is not a science
I don't write because I feel
I have no inspration
I don't fish and reel
My words require no interpretation
I don't write for the praise
I care not for applause
I don't set emotions ablaze
Behind each syllable is no cause
I am no prodigy
I don't do it for you
I don't prophecy
I write simply because I do.
