You asked me what I was doing now
\nWhat something I was using to fill the hours
\n\u201cStill just writing,\u201d I said
\nYou are unsurprised<\/p>\n
\u201cThe writer on herself\u201d
\nIt\u2019s my latest mot du jour
\nOf course you\u2019d say that all my writing\u2019s about me, that I\u2019m self-involved
\nand anyway ethnocentricity is unavoidable<\/p>\n
I hate when you use big words that I have to Google.<\/p>\n
You ask me don\u2019t I ever get sick of it
\nThe unslept nights, the hungry stomach
\nThe constant sideways battle to edge the word between the lines
\nor into the small hours<\/p>\n
I smile sadly and step back
\nAnd you nod and sigh.
\nAnd it finished, as it always did
\nwith more words
\nand stupid questions. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
