So many colors
From which to choose
And what do I pick?
A shade of blue
Each time I see it
It causes me fear
The moment draws closer
Wait! It’s already here!
Another slash, really?!
So many hours ahead
One more on the next page
I’m now filled with dread
Each paragraph
So carefully planned
Is filled with markings
From my very own hand
I guess you can tell
I’m up to my eyeballs in edit
If it keeps going this way
I think I’ll just shred it!
