I've got one,
she said, and
it's exactly what you
should live by,
the court adjourned-
It doesn't matter
how mediocre your writing is
just keep doing it
for yourself
because no one else wants
to read it.
And...? When they reconvened.
They threw the book at me-
I tried to smile,
poured a glass of
orange juice,
watched the pulp
forced to the top,
struggle, and finally
sink to the bottom of the glass
and
I sat awhile thinking about how sad
that color was.
