I am Writer

I am the muse.I am resistance.I embody success.I embody failure.
My writing will never be perfect.My story will be written, in fact it is, everyday. Just not today. Definitely tomorrow.I am persistence. I am impatience.
When do you want to write the best novel of your career? NOW!When do you want it published? NOW!Who’s going to read it? EVERYONE! NOW!
My writing is trite.My writing is unique.
I’ll persevere. Unless I don’t.I’ll give up. Unless I won’t.
I serve words when I cook.I vacuum them when I clean.I steal them when I look.I torture and tame them in my book.
I whisper when I shout.Laugh when I cry.Run when I sleep.Wake up to die.
Cause someone’s gonna. Die.Don’t look at me, I’m just the scribe.
It’s about the story you see.Yours. Mine. And Ours.We all have one.Or two. Or none we want to share.
It’s the sum of all parts.The bottom line.The beginning and the middle.The end of the line.
It’s what I do.And so do you.Using A through Z.It’s how we see.
I am writer. May I have this dance?
***May I?

May I have this dance with you?

This post was originally published 9-1-13, but never here on The Glitter Globe and I'm really feeling this today and needed to fling these words into the Glitterverse to see if you can feel them.
