Classic Poem

Here we go...
on a fantastic journey
of self discovery.

He told me:
" Just grab a pen
and write whatever you feel.
Let it flow.
It's best
when you don't
premeditate your writing."

I should:
edit my writing,
not my ideas !

I should:
take my own advice.

But, I think,
that's easier said than done.
Don't I always try to think
of what I'm going to say next,
before I commit it to paper ?

But then I think,
" What is good writing anyway ?
How will I know when I'm there ?"

"Are we there yet ?"
