To Write


    

They say the greats were great 

Because they painted a lot,

That practice makes perfect,

And that we are creatures of habit. 

So I guess Iā€™m gonna write a lot,

Practice creation, chase perfection,

And make words my hobby. 

It is a mystery, even to myself,

Why I choose to answer the urge. 

I do not ask of words to bring me fame,

Nor do I expect them to find acclaim. 

I am not backing some noble cause,

Or producing pamphlets for revolution. 

I am simply aspiring to write

Because while a finished piece is great,

The act of creation itself is divine.
