Angst, suffering, anguish,
The birth of many monumental works.
Contentment, settled, confidence,
The death of meaningful poetry.
Poets long for contentment,
I have a loving wife and kids.
Poets aim to find the eye of the hurricane,
I love my career, twenty years now.
Poets strive for confidence,
Something to search for.
Angst, suffering, anguish,
Why do I lack confidence?
Thank God,
Something to write about.

I was lamenting the lack of turmoil in my life. My poetry was better when I was full of angst. I'm basically shaming myself for not being happy with happiness. Messed up I know.
