Like really bad. Worse than yours, I bet. A lot of it about how every little thing reminds me that we39。re all going to die one day. I wrote collections and collections of these poems, thinking one day I would have my moment. I named one collection, ironically, The Eternal Optimist. In 1996, I found an advert for the International Poetry Competition. I was 16 years old and ready for my poetry to be released on the world. Not only was it a petition with a cash prize, but it was poetry, which I wrote, and international. This was my ticket to being worldfamous. I submitted a poem called Trail of Thought. If you ever wrote bad poetry as a teenager, you39。ll have written something like it. In the poem, I went for a walk and noticed small poignant(辛酸的) things in nature, and each one reminded me that we were all going to die one day. I filled out the form, printed off the poem and sent it off, fingers crossed. I waited to hear back I carried on writing, I probably finished another collection. Then I got a letter from the International Society of Poets. I opened the envelope carefully, just in case a prizewinning cheque fell out I hadn39。t won. But, they liked my poem enough to include it in their anthology(詩(shī)選), Awaken to a Dream. I closed my eyes, I wanted to scream with happiness. I was going to be a published poet. All I had to do in order to be published was accept the terms and pay 163。 45（plus 163。 5 p amp。 p）for an anthology. If I didn39。t buy a copy of the anthology, my poem wouldn39。t be included. I had to convince my mum, who thought my writing a meaningless pastime, to part with 163。 50. She even asked the question: “Why do you have to pay to be in this book?” Nevertheless, she wrote a cheque for 163。 50 and I returned it with my letter of agreement. I was 16 and about to be a published poet. This was what it had all been about. This is what it had all been leading to. The months waiting for the anthology were a torture. I hit some sort of writer39。s block, I couldn39。t write anything. It was almost as if, now I was published, it mattered more what I mitted to page and I didn39。t want to write anything down unless it was good enough to go into an anthology like Awaken to a Dream. The book arrived through the post. Here it was. The first thing I had ever been published in a book called Awaken to a Dream, featuring a blistering take on the mundanity(世俗) of mortality by yours truly. I opened the package to find a book, containing my work. The first thing that struck me about the book was that it was bigger than A4. And it was thick. And on each page was a poem, next to another poem, next to another. The type was small and the paper thin enough to trace with. With three or four poems per page and more than 700 pages, I had a sinking realization. This was a scam, an illegal trick for making money. If each poem had cost the author 163。 45, they were sitting on a fortune. I felt ashamed. Everyone who had submitted something to the International Poetry Competition had fallen for the same hustle（忙碌）as me. I couldn39。t bring myself to show my mum. And she never asked to see it. Perhaps she thought if the price of me learning a lesson was 163。50 we didn39。t really have, then so be it. But that stayed with me, that moment of realization. Because I determined to keep writing and ensure that my precious words always found a home worthy of them. Or at least that39。s how, more than 20 years later, I justify falling for a scam. Because your first time being published should be special, and if I don39。t convince myself that there was a reason for my first poem being in a vanity(無價(jià)值) book, then what good was it in the first place? And, strangely, someone is selling this book on Amazon at the moment. I wonder how many other writers who went on to do more stuff are in there.（1）What does the underl
