I begin a story
I cannot finish
Stories bring me clarity
A way to sort through problems
I spin the web of a plot
It nearly matches my own predicament
I've never finished a story
As I describe my characters
I apply their supposed solutions
And am no longer drowning in anxiety
I am not a writer
I begin a story
I cannot finish
