Autoeroticism
Writing is an autoerotic endeavour
Usually performed secretly in the dark.
The audacity of placing a consonent next to a vowel
In the expectation of something significant
Is hubris. A sin.
The writer is guilty of stroking his own ego
Then taking no responsibility for the outcome.
It’s pleasurable, but pointless
Unless there is readership.
Isn’t that the way of all things?
Writing is the loneliest profession.
