Typewriter Series #2623 by Tyler Knott Gregson

Is it shortcuts you’re hunting,
a thousand eyes on your words,
is it praise that keeps you writing?
Is it my eyes you’re after,
is it why you attach me to the thoughts
you spill?  
These are your words,
this is your version of the truth,
own them, own it,
and let it stand on its own legs.  
I played no part in this,
so remove me from your work,
be proud of your creation
and let those meant to find it,
find it.

There are no shortcuts to truth,
to those willing to support it,
there is no secret here
save this:

Open the arteries to your heart
and let ink spill
like blood.
