Inspired by this post on “Notes from the Slushpile”, here is my resolution on writing.

I have decided to write

 

I have decided to write,

In spite of the

Impending flight,

The family fight,

And the nasty dog-bite.

 

I have decided to create,

Despite the

New first date,

The Sunday fete,

And the lack of a due date.

 

I have decided to write

Even though

There will be rewrites,

Many long late nights,

And rejections outright.

 

I have decided to write

Because I am a writer.
