Suddenly, it flows…

And you never told anyone that

you gave her a name your

sweet posey, his

spitting image and all I could say

was “I’m sorry”

 

“Forget your personal tragedy. We are all bitched from the start and you especially have to hurt like hell before you can write seriously. But when you get the damned hurt use it – don’t cheat with it. Be as faithful to it as a scientist.”

Who said it?: Ernest Hemingway
