Why I Write, Part x+258: Anxiety as an Influence

I won't claim I'm the kind on whom people depend.
I'm a man–not of honor, but of flesh and the pen.
Wholly lacking in diligence (Puritan faith),
I leave broken hearts, broken promises strewn in my wake,
Pursuit of goals trumped by pursuit of the mind.
Still, how could I stray so far as to find
Myself afraid to just lounge under trees
For fear of not thinking, and lack of ideas?
