The Author's Delimma
Who am I reaching for?
This time I must achieve more
Do I take a stab at the heart?
Will it be considered a beautiful work of art?
What am I to write about?
I must get these ideas out!
Am I to inspire the people?
To create a verse for the steeple?
When am I to begin?
I am desperate to obtain these thoughts once again!
Shall I create a lovely poem?
Is it to be vulgar or wholesome?
Where is this going to be seen?
My ideas one day must convene
Is this to be a unique masterpiece?
Will this resemble the works of Ancient Greece?
How will I pick a good message?
I feel I must take my own passage
Which of my feelings do express?
Shall I excite, delight, digress or depress?
The results of my creativity will always remain an enigma
For nothing is more restricting than The Author's Delimma
