OK I might not write
Top-class poetry
So what? I get a kick out
Of writing just for me
To me I’ve always thought that
Poets basically
Write poetry to please themselves
And not for you or me
But if you/me or anyone
Like what they’re writing down
Simple, trite or otherwise
We follow them around
You may think what I’ve written here
Is simple, plain and trite
So what? I’ve exercised my poet’s right
To write just what I like

Writing is an expression of self in some ways, yes it’s some sort of selfish act. I hear ya.
