I love this post, it expresses the angst and anguish a writer goes through! With a great economy of words! I would give this a six, but I have none left! Maddy

Neither do I for some reason. Lol
Comment from pome lover
I like this, and think you are a good writer despite your protests.
I have to ask, though, does La in "... toil in La," mean LA, California?
Will have to read another of yours. :)

Thank you very much.
Comment from Shirley Ann Bunyan
I Eean. I really liked this. I wouldn't have known what the last line meant (or title) without the explanation so that threw me somewhat.
The poem starts off very strong...
'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'
This is good. Also, you could put the translation of the last line underneath it in brackets as part of the poem. I think it would add greatly.
About images. I use 'copilot'. It's free, microsoft. Just goole it. Ask it to 'create image of' then anything you want. It's great fun.
Also, I would use a lighter tint of the brown in your background to make the words stand out.

To get good points and win contests you need to have a picture with each work. When I first got here I was dead set against it. I thought my work should be enough, I was wrong. It taught me to think differently. Everything you do is on point. The writing, The font you select, the color of the ink, the matting for background, the size of the type, and the picture which informs the reader of your thoughts that you could not write. Since you are a newbie, I am reading you. But I generally review one for one. Regardless of points. Karen :-)

Comment from Mark Jackson
This is great I really enjoyed it. I did find that it was a strange choice not to offer a translation of your final line in the notes. You explain other things but not the Latin.

I put it in the description area by accident. This is the toil or this is the work. I couldn?t put this is the life together properly. I like this better. Thanks
