To inscribe the dreams of humanity
It is a writer's duty
to inscribe
the dreams
and the hopes of humanity.

It is a writer's duty
to see
both the darkness and the light,
both the negative and the positive,
both the bad and the good
in the nightmare of modern existence.

It is a writer's duty
to visualize
the outcomes of each scenario
in sentence and paragraph,
in stanza and line
for the entertainment
and the edification
of human kind.

It is a writer's duty
to create
an eternal record
of all she sees,
she feels,
she experiences,
she knows,
believes she knows
or does not know
about life
and the universe.
