Honestly,
it’s less than equal to a turd
if you’re a widow,
or you’ve vanquished
cancer 67 times.
Or your son’s head
was severed in a crash
and you’re trying to stitch
it back with platitudes
recalled from 1980's soaps.
No one will donate a crap
to honour all those
stillborn journals that
you list to validate yourself.

So you’ve got some flowery website.
Is that the pic you chose
because it shows your dentures best?
No, I don’t think I’ll download
that ‘novel’ with the
melancholy name. I’m sure
your other guests will be
delighted to resist it too.
‘Nice’ cover, though!
Yes, you’re working something
out, hoping simultaneously
it’s important in a wider world,
in a wider sense. That
it’ll last beyond you.
Well,
it’s dead already.
