There are poems; my opinion says that
those are hard to beat.
There are recipes to tell us how to
make good things to eat.
There are movie scripts that thrill us
when the actors get them right.
There are journals, tales of suffering,
that leave us horrified.
There are essays, school assignments.
Those are nearly all the same.
There are editorials, pleas to right,
preserve or change.
There are even manifestos, even lists
of strange demands.
There are little pearls of wisdom I
will never understand.
There are novels that can keep me up
all hours of the night.
There are millions of good reasons
someone else wants you to write.
