Oh, I'Ve Been Racking Up N-A's

Oh, I’ve been racking up N/A’s
that I consider unearned praise
just knowing they were viewed and read
before put quietly to bed.

The cause I find upon reflection
is oft my failure to heed direction
for I start writing in my haste
the muse, full speed, to cut and paste

I’ll miss a stanza, rhyme, or form
amidst my fevered writing storm.
I gather N/A’s now and then
and smiling, mutter, Not Again.
