                    Should man look for the joys of fame,                   
                    and seek a glory in his name,                           
                    The art he made would soon be lost,                     
                    For recognition has it's cost.                          
                    Should man create to sell the poem?                     
                    Or write it for love's sake alone?                      
                    For when one yearns for more applause,                  
                    Me thinks that man has lost his cause.                  
                    And so I hide - you wonder why,                         
                    I am not humble, am not shy,                            
                    The reasons I don't sign my name,                       
                    are not to make you go insane.                          
                    For when I write - I write for joy,                     
                    I have no self-inflated ploy,                           
                    I have no need to have it known,                        
                    That I can only speak through poem.                     
                    Simple reasons why I hide,                              
                    Fear, and love, and selfish pride,                      
                    Funny - but all that I cite,                            
                    Are also reasons why I write.
