Reasons I write, there are many
Firstly there are no rules
I write what I want
How I want
Even so, I pay attention to spelling
And that pesky grammar
I write to express my views
To show the world exactly what I think of it
Each poem speaks my thoughts
Along with my harsh critique
I write to create
For my own self-satisfaction
To reassure myself
That there is something I can do to contribute
Most of all, I write to inspire
Like my own idols
Who have pushed me to greater heights
Their words and actions spoke to me
Making me weep and laugh at the same time
And so
I write
