Thou ill-form’d offspring of my feeble brain,
Who after birth didst by my side remain,
Till snatched from thence by friends, less wise than true,
Who thee abroad, expos’d to publick view,
Made thee in raggs, halting to th’ press to trudge,
Where errors were not lessened (all may judge).
At thy return my blushing was not small,
My rambling brat (in print) should mother call,
I cast thee by as one unfit for light,
Thy Visage was so irksome in my sight;

Overthinking bullies every mind
Every creative act to try
To suppress and smother them
So please remember friend
And make your reaction kind

Yet being mine own, at length affection would
Thy blemishes amend, if so I could:
I wash’d thy face, but more defects I saw,
And rubbing off a spot, still made a flaw.
I stretched thy joynts to make thee even feet,
Yet still thou run’st more hobling then is meet;
In better dress to trim thee was my mind,
But nought save home-spun Cloth, i’ th’ house I find.
In this array ’mongst Vulgars mayst thou roam.
In Criticks hands, beware thou dost not come;
And take thy way where yet thou art not known,
If for thy Father askt, say, thou hadst none:
And for thy Mother, she alas is poor,
Which caus’d her thus to send thee out of door.

Overthinking bullies every mind
Every creative act to try
To suppress and smother them
So please remember friend
And make your reaction kind

As any author frets and pines
Over the joining of their lines
So modern creators do
Over everything they share with you
Remember when you comment then
Their feelings hurt as dear as yours
And one kind word can do wonders
And an offhand slight destroys

Overthinking bullies every mind
Every creative act to try
To suppress and smother them
So please remember friend
And make your reaction kind
