"Write a poem that gives directions on how to do something"

_______________________________________

You think you know it all

Till you decide to put it down

And you end up staring at the wall

While your face takes on a frown

Knowing to do is one thing

Writing it down is another

It is easier to do something

But giving directions is a bother

You start to write it out

Then you're stuck in between

Plagued by a many a doubt

For what you write is not what you mean.

'How to..do is just a list

Of how to do anything

To give a succinct yet clear gist

teaching others something

Yet it is so tough to tell

Something that is easy to do.

Something that you do so well

Yet unable to let others know
