What Makes Writing Hard

what makes this writing hard?
your insecurity that they may not like
the poem from your heart.
don't mind them, this is not a race.
not a contest. this is your precious right of
freedom of thought.
it is free, unlimited texting,
it cannot kill you
it makes you live, free from the chains
of your past.

writing is as easy as defecating.
it is bowel removal. it is the electrocution of the wart.
the shaving of the beard.
the cutting of your hair and making you feel renewed
like hell.
