Most of the stuff I have posted is old, recycled, been-through-the sewer-and-water-treatment-plant, type of dung. I hang onto everything I write and post and find myself going back to rework, readjust, tweak, and hopefully refine some. Others, I hang on to for a line or two, which I believe I will use at a later time. Essentially, I have not written much new poetry in the last three years, while I have gone through challenges, readjustment, and tweaking in my own life.
Beyond that, I was wondering how many others keep reworking their stuff and for how long? I possess only a few writes I am happy to leave alone, without further revising. However, many others have undergone dozens of revisions and it seems I will never be completely satisfied with these.
