ars poetica, eh? Tough ground, tough ground because there is, imho, an expectation of artfulness in the expression. This one, while not breaking any new, has some nice moments.

I was struck recently by the thought, "it doesn't matter how hard you cried when you wrote it - it don't make it good".

This one though, aint bad.
