People Who Write



People who write are mischevious
        little social lepers.
Who have the same attitudes
        as smirking, shit-disturbing street-punks.
Who lie, and are always demanding
        ill deserved attention.
People who write are difficult
        and hard to live with.
Their writing is vice and it comes
        in fits, binges and benders.
They're all pretentious and manic
        always blathering-on about immaterial things
        such as enhancing humanity's consciousness.
People who write are bastards most often.

S J Garrett
