Who reads cannot write
There is a reading community out there
That makes reading a competition
One book a day keeps the reading enthusiasm away —

Who writes cannot read
There is a writing community out there
That makes writing a competition
Or rather scrapbooking
That’s more decorating than writing —

There are also words
Written in beautiful handwriting
They call it handlettering
And, of course, that’s a competition, too
It’s also a business
Scrapbooking and handlettering
The lowest forms of writing
That doesn’t make writing a competition
It makes writing the lowest form of art.
