6.6 - Love At First Write

 

I love to read books.

I love to eat dates.

I love to beat crooks.

I love to meet mates.

 

I love to make money.

I love to ache hearts.

I love to take a knee.

I love to break farts.

 

I love to write poems.

I love to tell jokes.

I love to break rules.

I love to ruin the predictable.

 

I love to live fully.

Love to do what I do.

But most of all, love,

I love to love you.

 

 

6.6 - Love At Second Write

 

I love reading books

I love breeding crickets

I love feeding cooks

I love speeding tickets

 

I love taking a knee.

I love aching hearts.

I love making money.

I love breaking… winds.

 

I love writing poems.

I love telling jokes.

I love breaking rules.

I love ruining the predictable.

 

I love living fully.

I love doing what I do.

But most of all, love,

I love loving you.

 

 

[Editor's Note: Compared to speaking, writing has the advantage of having time to think about what you want to say and how you want to say it. Most writers start with a first draft and keep working on improvements. Ronaldo7 thinks a first draft is a money order. He starts spending, creating the later-to-solve problem of writing texts that sell. After several letters from his editor, beautiful prose like "this needs work", "fix the grammar, it's «I love reading books» and not «I love to read books»." and "Your deadline was three years ago. If you don't deliver before next Friday, we'll send Winston Wolf to get back our advance.", this writer suddenly found inspiration for a second (and better) version.

The Craft = Self-critique + Perfection; the children of Motivation and Dedication.]
