Words Through The Fog / Deadline Despair


    Got to edit. Got to edit. Underlined red each time I read it.


    As I stare bleerily through viral haze. Tap. Tap. Tap


    Yet the typo stays.


    This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author''s work.


    Attempt number four finally gets the word write.


    Perhaps at last I can finally right.


    To marshall thoughts made of cotton wall


    The sneeze scatters characters, plot and all


    It''s mighty hard to write when you have a disease.


    The deadline doesn''t care. Time doesn''t listen to please.


    Pleas tell me if the ticking''s just inside my head.


    Am I writing sense or are my characters misled?


    By cough and sneeze and desperate wheeze


    Seeking just one moment of simple clarity


    Until at last I swallow the bitter pill


    It''s mighty hard writing when you''re ill.
