I Don't Read My Own Posts

Amit wants us to read the full poem by Charles Bukowski whose excerpts are as under:

don't be like so many writers,
don't be like so many thousands ofpeople who call themselves writers,
don't be dull and boring andpretentious,
don't be consumed with self-love.
the libraries of the world have yawned themselves to sleepover your
kind.
don't add to that.
don't do it.

But I decided against reading the entire poem and keep writing. Reasons: 1. I don't understand poems. 2. I'm a narcissist.

Hey, I don't read my own posts, why bother about other people. Hehehehe..
