Publishing Is Not Writing Poem by Terence George Craddock

hard to do long distance hard
without all comp skills necessary
fitting into a publishing frame
is difficult for a free spirit
harder than I thought
but publishers actually let
me keep everything without
objections in end vision writ

too many sacrifices time split
publishing is not inspiring writing
but despite turmoil frustrations
publishing finally came together well
despite four long months weathering flu
unbelieveable cough coughing unbelieveable

fitting into a publishing frame
is not good for a free spirit
is difficult for a free spirit
hung frame free spirits reject
would be nice to get back to actual
writing but still possibly weeks off
this is all nature related poetry
my least in your face contriversial

so publishing is collating
into smooth or interesting
run ons between poems
between specific themes
readers will love some sections
more than others according to taste

but the mix I think works
and now to sleep to sleep deep
