Sometimes I write a poem and even though my poem blog is hidden these days, I find the poem too raw, too honest, too exposing. Heartfelt doesn't make it art. So I'll save it as a draft, not publish it to my poem blog. I can't stand the idea of someone actually reading it.

Eventually, though, I'll probably hit "publish." With a few weeks or months of distance, I don't feel so extremely emotionally autopsied. Maybe it's ok to let people - even the imaginary people who can find my poem blog and would actually want to read it - see the reality.
