the trayer
The tryer
in short bursts, the quiet expresses
a need to communicate about work
done but not published
Self-critical, raked with doubts
with no connection to the world
of publishing
Offer from publishers is that he will pay
them, is like paying for sex; it leaves
behind self-disgust, this unbecoming
need to see one's words in print
The hard part is to admit to the lack
of talent, what else is there to do
other than collecting old stamps
