Procastination

It's easy to have
the world showing you something

But it's hard to show
Something original back

All the great writers & thinkers
Why didn't they buckle
Before the wisdom
That had already been written down
Before they were even born

And went to the pub?

Maybe you need to get
Old enough to get a glimpse of death
on the horizon.

And maybe this is why Bukowski
Published his first book when he was 51
And did not stop writing until the end.
