hoc opus, hic labor est by EeanBlack

The lamp is lit
 
The wheels are turning
 
The paper is ready
 
My soul is yearning 
 
To liberate a thought
 
To collect it's earning
 
The torment's been brought
 
The bridges are burning
 
The life of a creator
 
hoc opus, hic labor est
(this is the toil)
 
 

Author Notes
To collect it's earning for me is the acknowledgement from other writers. The torment is the anguish it causes to express things never knowing if they will be accepted as competent work, especially poetry. The bridges are burning refers to the solitary life of any creative person. I'm a hack, but some of you guys are brilliant.
