Born talented or lucky? No-brainer
Would you like to have been Van Gogh? No way
Nor Rembrandt, Jimi Hendrix - the pain of
Manic depression never goes away
For long; and of the millions in the clay
The mute inglorious Miltons, the friendless,
The good, the meek, filled in that Edward Gray
Eulogised: would you be as they? Confess
You’d rather be financially careless
Nothing stopping you hopping on trains, a
Trans-Siberian trip, writing all day
No office in sight, musings in the press
No more amusing than pub talk. Stay in a
Top hotel. Tell us where (but we must pay).
