I prefer to have a deadline
When my fine work is expected
With a margin of one week's time
Before the great work's collected
Don't ask me to save a password
Or remember a strange email
Writing a poem's hard enough
More admin makes creatives fail
But if you want comical verse
My face in a funny photo
Just send a link which I can click
Instantly my brainwaves will flow
I write a poem every day
I wish it were a well-paid job
I'll do one or two, just for you
I've hundreds more on my prized blog
Maybe you frown and speculate
You'd write something even better?
We could start to converse in verse
In a daily email 'letter'!
We could give each other feedback
Dear mentor, muse, I'll not complain
If you give magic my drafts lack
I'll gladly transform all again
Re-writing's not a bore, chore, war
It nice to ice verse once or twice
What excites me more than writing?
Being printed - paid for advice.
