Blank like blank Poetic Asides

 Write Like You Would Die if You Didn’t

 

Writer, you write for a reason.
You need not wait for a season.
Write as if you would surely die,
If your words you didn’t supply.
You need not take time to ease in.

 

You can jump with both your feet in.
May get up early or sleep in.
Though your creative well feels dry,
Writer, you write.

 

Though you’re not hungry, you dig in.
When you’re sick, you take medicine.
Though you are tired, you exercise.
And you go to work, if you’re wise.
So to write, use your discipline.
Writer, you write.
