You write what you want
Because you are what you write
Others will do what will
Start your story off slow
Or start it off fast
The pace is yours to grow
Follow the trends if you so wish
Or go off on your own
And create a new niche
People will love it
People will hate it
So it is as it is
If one could please everyone
Then we’d all be the same
Sadly we’re not, which is not really a shame
(This rhyming scheme is brought to you by ‘Accident’.)

Some day I hope to rhyme on purpose. 🙂

Accidently on purpose is how I rhyme
Don’t get it right most of the time
Continue to bang my head off of the proverbial wall
Waiting just waiting for that beck and call
Not holding my breath I’ll have you know
Must get down that trumpet – perhaps give it a blow
Just a few lines totally tongue in cheek
I’m away now into a dark room now – more rhyming words to seek.

I think I’ve heard a variation of that. The idea of ‘makes a difference to a few’ is rather common and true.
