For Poets

Don't write to impress, write to understand.

Write by what you feel, not by what you want others to think when it's placed in their hand.

Your heart, your soul, you being should be your words in writing,

scribbled down on scraps or typed about something you believe in fighting. 

For, with, against, express your motives in pen.

May your permanence live on through your words, even when you'll never breathe again.

Don't allow foerign thoughts into private estates.

Don't let their criticism corrupt your writings fate.
