is what i'm suggesting below censorship?

i'm still allowing the smitten creator to buttonhole
any poor fool to hear her latest creation.

i think the permanency of print should perhaps be
withheld until the muse's visitation is over, and
there can be a more judicious assessment of what
transpired.

surely any number of writers would, if they only
could, wish back their headlong rush into print.

even our dear doctor on our very own list, it seems to
me, if i read him correctly, regrets allowing his
first two books into print. and these weren't books
of mere juvenilia.
