Years ago
Someone told me…
“Shun… you need to be realistic, nobody is going read a f____g book about poetry, who is gonna read that s___?
Good luck getting that published,” while smirking heavily.
Me in 2019…
holding a book –
(while cheesing)
that I published – the first in a series.
It was surreal to be standing on the side
of the Katsura river in
Japan.
Where I have
a modest
readership of
my blog.
Now that person
who told me…
“be realistic”
I’ve searched
high and low
and I can’t
find them, nowhere.
I just want
to know –
was it something
I said?
“Let me know, okay?”
Lesson?
“Use the words of your detractors as your fuel to make them the fool.”
That’s a unlimited fuel source…. by the way.
