Right, Nemo. So do I. And when I write for myself, I try to treat myself to the best possible poem I can write, which is sometimes not the poem I intended to write or wanted to write.
And Maryann, there's a difference between writing a poem that doesn't say what you originally intended it to say, on the one hand, and writing a poem that you don't "mean" or think is valid and honest in its own terms.
