Comparing Your Poems Is Not a Great Thing To Do
No matter how wonderful your writing is
Someone else will say it better with a pen that is more magical
Sometimes with poetry, other times with prose
To compare your missive to theirs is to turn your poem into a dust rag.
It could get moldy and dank, and stinky; you might elect to throw it into a ditch.
Whether or not she continues to survive and hold her head up with pride is up to you. Remember how proud you were of her yesterday?
Let's go back to that.
