I finished a long poem this morning. I am not totally happy with the results. The writing needs to move a lot deeper, and the imageries need to be strengthened. But at least I have a full first draft, which can be worked upon later. Also, I haven't written any new poems in a LONG time. As a result, I was feeling that probably I have lost the poetry inside. So, I feel happy to have something new.
I also realized, while working on this one, that it will be a long time before I can have a full-length collection which will satisfy me. I am okay with that.I don't have anything to prove to anyone, and I do believe that certain things in life can't really be done in a hurry. Writing is one of those.
