Why I Write, Part x+265: Director's Commentary for #WeCanLandOnACometButICant

I don't do it often, but when I do, I find

That if I'm writing with an audience in mind

I do it not to move, but rather to impress,

And that I'm rarely if ever at my personal best.

800 Days of Summer

In the last five years of “play ball!”

My Pirates have learned to stand tall.

Though I should be thankful, I'm appalled

To note, as the last of them turns to fall,

That they've yet to win anything Major at all.

Horseshoes and Handgrenades

I want to play.

Let's play a game

Of horseshoes

and handgrenades.

Together, we'll be

Almost perfect.

We can get close,

Close together

and then you can

blow my life up.
