I do! Sometimes(okay, kinda often) I have ideas that I let settle for a while because I want them to be perfect when I finally unleash them onto a page. When I do though, I tend(as I always do) to find myself writing away from my original idea. And then I feel sad, because I'm like... is this really the poem I want to spend this idea on? Can't people just forget about this one if I write a better one, and have them not realize it's the same concept?
