Am I Write

I don't read, much - but I write
I can read - but am I right not to 
not to read?
It is my right - not to read 
I just can't string words together 
build a story in my head
words others have written 
words in their books
books full of words - are words that in my head head won't link
together 
yet my head writes lines that won't coalesce
into a novel that will never be
that no-one else will read
because it won't get written 
because it won't make sense 
and it won't have structure 
because I don't read what others have written 
so I don't know what is wanted
and it wouldn't be written to the standard that those
those who do read and write - require
and that all those agencies 
that would-be writers
write to
sending the words that they have written
correctly written 
cleverly written
entertainingly written 
grippingly written 
their story - wrote
grammatically - proper 
Intellectually - OK
and even if
if I could get it out
and I could write it down - properly
it still wouldn't get read - right?
