A Scratch One Has To Itch

~ Self-Portrait of a Scratchy Artist ~ Oh, it's just a scratch one has to itch Even if in one's voice there's a hitch And in every attempt an annoying glitch The finished product never going to make one rich Yet if one doggedly continues to itch Onlookers, sooner or later, may twitch He will finally have found his special niche As a writer of poems liberally categorized as kitsch
