We always saw desire pushing her
to do more and better things. She still tries,
but by spending many thinking hours,
without getting new ideas from the time.
She neglects important tasks. Excuses
are her speciality now we say.
and it may be necessary to help her
All she admits is that she is not well;
yet she looks quite healthy. I'm no doctor,
but if she is ill then there should be signs.
Wouldn't there? I think so. It's obvious.
All she needs is encouragement. I'm sure.
She ought to be a really important artist.
It's quite clear that is what she still expects
or she wouldn't keep trying to achieve.
You don't. If you fail, you change your work.
