Writing

“Writing” as read by Warren Adler

I wrote two thousand words today and thought them fine

Until I read them over and erased them line by line

I understand the secret of the writer’s art

I knew that always from the start

There are times when you just can’t get it right

And often need a second sight

No matter, I never yield to sorrow

I’ll do it better on the morrow

-W.A.
