Writing
is admitting angst,
agonizing over adjectives
without life,
only a run-on sentence
in our minds,
as we sit typing
and backspacing away the very thought
that creates that comforting click.
Whether it be by voluntarily accepting a challenge
or actually paid for the work,
Writers worry way before words hit the page
and we still write,
editing as we go,
leaving the text,
b/c starbucks always makes it better,
are re-reading somewhere
between twilight and rush hour;
Working is another notebook,
more pens,
a newer laptop,
a prettier coffee mug,
and a few hours where we don't worry
about writing.
