Writing Write Dance
599 wordsIn his Essay on Criticism, Alexander Pope states that, True ease in writing comes from art, not chance / As those move easiest who have learn to dance.

Even on small narrow roads people park on the side, which makes it very difficult for me, because I must stop a lo...
