I'm always up writing these stupid notes.
I look over at the thing's I've wrote.
All are the same in a different way.
They're all written by me.
No one will ever be able to see why they are,
What they are, how they are.
They'll never even understand them.
But as a writer,
I told myself,
"They'll apply to me the way they apply to me.
They'll apply to them the way they want them to apply."
Each prose, poem, story, has its own meaning.
The way they mean to you is how the poem, or story becomes yours.
It's your story too.
