Writing Tired

Daisy Peasblossom on May 4, 2011

A reflection upon the value of proofreading.

Writing tired
I miss things.

How I long
For a camera

To back up my words.

A picture, old Ben said,
Is worth a thousand of them.

Is my kingdom lost
For the lack of one?

A word mislaid
Becomes rejection.

Weary, weary…
I proofread badly.

Shall I sleep
And dream

Of little word sheep
Growing leaves of cash.

Tomorrow…
Tomorrow I will try again.
