Why I Write

I write because I have to. It's an obsession I've been taming for 15 years.

I write because I want to be good at it. Even if I know perfection is an illusion.

I write because it gives me a sense of identity. It gives me a sense of purpose.

I write because I want to ponce about saying I'm an artist, writer, and poet. It makes me feel special.

I write to keep myself sane. Sometimes it feels like my thoughts could split an atom.

I write because sometimes I'm inspired. My mind flows with beauty today.

I write so my voice can be heard. In a world full of 7 billion people it's good to make a quiet noise.

I write because I'm a fruitcake. My flavor adds to the world.
