"The Literary Thrill Seeker"

I have a love for writing:

A love for prose and verse

But when I get my feedback

I don't know which is worse

There's this thing with paragraphing

I really don't know what to do

After ten lines I hit "enter" twice

And then I start anew

I really have no ear for meter,

Or counting beats within a line

So I read it back in monotone

And everything sounds fine

When writing songs, the words erupt

Like they're coming from a fountain

But in the end, they're all sung to

"She'll be Comin' 'round the Mountain"

I write a lot in second person

And seem to have a thing for "you"

And many times within a scene

I tend to change the Point of View

With all of these shortcomings

Perhaps, I really ought to quit

Or cut back on my output

At least a tiny little bit

But I tell you, it's impossible

The written word is too exciting

I have but one addiction

And it's called a love of writing
