Submit an Article seen near the Content View. Whenever I see it, it’s like a reminder that I can’t remove.

There on my dashboard

It was like a silent siren

Dictating me what to do

Saying submit a new article

Another task I need to face

With a click on my mouse

It’s already in front of me

Like a nagger that bugs

I need to answer its call

Only when not too busy

    I agree with you chris73,that ’submit article’ is annoying..

  • rajeev bhargava on May 23, 2009

    i agree 100%. it reminds me of the one in HOLLOW MAN. kevin bacon has “You should be working” painted on the ceiling above his bed, whenever he lies down.

  • seashell66 on May 23, 2009

    Agree. Is it all about the clicks?

  • Mr Ghaz on May 23, 2009

    Nice ones..U’re right..this “ugly” button sometimes make us in “very uncomfortable” situation..especially when there\’s no new article submitted on that day..Thnx a lot for sharing this lovely poem.

    I don\’t think it\’s too bad, though that thing about \”you should be working\” being on the ceiling would piss me off. :)

    Don’t pressure yourself, just when you don’t think much about writing, the idea will come out. ‘Happens to everybody.

    It’s like “You have to submit now!” hehehe… I respond to this only when I’ve got an idle time…

  • 1hopefulman on Aug 23, 2010

    I’m one who appreciates reminders. Yes, I will get to it when I have something to submit.
