writer

i wish i wrote like e.e. cummings
showing life's aliveness in nonsense and incorrect grammar

i wish i wrote like f. scott fitzgerald
with something good and dark and tragic to say

i wish i wrote like shakespeare
poignant words perfectly placed on each profound page

i wish i wrote like maya angelou
offering blunt honesty with stark revelations of beauty

i wish i wrote like j.k. rowling
her gorgeous sweeping epic swells so intimately

i wish i wrote like my father
filling his sermons with humorous witty truths that make people cry

but here i am
and i write like me
which is who?
