It's Hard.

Writing is hard.

It is.

This poetry thing takes time.

It makes my head spin.

I do love overcoming the difficulty

and 

just writing it.

But thinking about doing it,

the writing thing 

and the thinking thing.

Like thinking about mowing the lawn

or thinking about chopping the wood

or even thinking about hanging out the washing...

Yes, it is the thinking about it that is hardest.

I think it is the thinking thing

most

that is hard.

The time thing,

that aspect of allowing 

myself time to sit

 and think

and write.

That is hard too.

Because there are so many other things to do that are 

possible to do.

What if I choose the wrong thing?

Can a poem be wrong?

These questions are hard now.

Writing at night.

It's hard too.

and 

quiet.

Quite hard.
