Measuring Up

Just the way it is.

 

Measuring Up

Your talent is limited.
You don’t write well.
You lack in charisma and charm.

You’re not very practical.
No serious money.
Your confidence – cause for alarm.

Your vision is cloudy
You’re often distracted
Your connections are few and diffused.

But the world needs saving
And there are so few who care.
My greatest hope is in you.

Author's Note

Spare me the wrath of thy vilest pen.

But the world needs saving
And there are so few who care.
My greatest hope is in you.

Great job!

My youngest spills over with words all the time. When she has to be quiet she mouths words because they just keep coming. Sometimes I want to plug her mouth but I'm afraid her head might explode.

Writers are like that. We have to put the words somewhere. For whatever reason, it's important that we share them with others.
