Life is a maze.
You take many turns
And you’ll be in a faze.
Your stomach churns
When you think of trouble.
Trouble is dangerous.
It can turn you to a pile of rubble.
It is treacherous.
You are constantly chased by obstacles
That you don’t ever want to face
Like a cat that runs from a dog with popsicles.
When we are caught we stare off to space.
Yet, if we didn’t take any turns,
We wouldn’t learn of the way one earns.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
