Thanks for that personal plus poetic comment, below.
When to Cease and Desist?
When should a poet, or would-be poet, cease and desist?
To answer that question, I too can't resist.

As, at the piano,. when at verse, I write and play at
with no thought of ever becoming a poet laureate
but almost entirely for my own bemusement--
yet I'm pleased should it also give others amusement.
It gives me quite a bit cheer, in fact
if and when I'm overheard with tact,
since, no matter how I might be aspirin'
I'll never be a great musician or a Lord Byron,
I'll never be a great musician or a Lord Byron,
or even less, a wayward genius like his daughter Ada,
so ,to be safe, I also always try to include some data.

This was sent to me
Do you know this (Billy Collins), the big deal poet from Stoneybrook?
I think you are much funnier
Addendum here:
This was sent to me and should have gone to Harold even more
I have no desire for notoriety
Just enjoy my office quietly.
Writing to amuse myself and a few
Willing to put up with what I do.
Here and there some find better ways
To spend their remaining days.
And say cease and desist.
Your stuff makes it hard to exist.
If any of you find this trash
Too trashy for your stash
Just give the word to end
No more will I send.
