Well.
Well what?
Well, here we are.
Preposterous!
A poet must start sure-footedly.
Ah, but beginning is not easy.
If you find it so difficult,
why do you insist on writing.
Because I have something to say.
Thank heaven for that.
What is it?
If I could tell you, I would have said it already.
And since you have not said it, you cannot tell me?
Precisely.
Congratulations!
Your poem is a model of brevity.
