Not A Publisher Or Critic Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Not A Publisher Or Critic



When I am writing,
That is what I do.
I am not reading.
And those few times I read...
I read what I choose and like!
That's just a fact of my life!

Call it what you will.
But that it is the deal!

I am not a publisher or critic.
Or a teacher with a mind,
That is scientific.

If that's not accepted...
Fine!
Neither one of us,
Have to live with it.
I know I don't.
And I won't discuss,
How I spend my time.

Especially when I have the mind,
To write!
And I have obligated myself to do that,
When the time finds me constantly...
Making that obsession I have to do it right.
