Poems Not Written For A Readership Poem by Terence George Craddock

many poems written a poet may assume will never be read
poet sole reader had to read these poems to write them
poet may abandon the poem mid writing after completed
poet found some need some desire to write inner words
poet may have reasons to not keep these thoughts emotions
poet decides what is kept what is tossed unless accidently lost

what is written as need what is written as creative leisure...
what expresses emotion pain what expresses pleasure...
what are throw away thoughts what persecutes a soul...
what emotive tales are written what is secret never told...
what is shared posted published promoted or discarded...
some poets private choose never to keep share post publish...
