Rubbish - JusJoJan

rubbish
     garbage
          pure nonsense on a page
not worth an edit 
     let alone the wasted effort already spent at the                      keyboard.
imposter
     delusional
            full of wishful thinking
 what makes you think things will change -
        this time,
              silly girl?
                                                                                                            you've done this before 
                                                                                                            again, 
                                                                                                                    and 
                                                                                                                         again.
                                                                                                            you'll let them down,
                                                                                                                      the waiters,
                                                                                                                           the hopefuls,
                                                                                                                                the vanishing fans.
                                                                                                            because the words are rubbish
                                                                                                            the ideas are rubbish
                                                                                                            characters, plots, story lines -
                                                                                                                         rubbish
                                                                                                             therefore you are rubbish, too. 

   -------
