The best thing about running for any political office (and losing), is that it prepares you for completing your first book (maybe your second, third; a short story, a poem, a script or a magazine article), and then trying to find an agent and being rejected by them. I ought to know. I have run for political office and lost, and I'm going through the process of looking for an agent, even though I have a proven track record with my first novel "Swap."

I laugh but my heart in pain
I laugh my mind weep
I laugh at the opposite of misery
I laugh in a wall suffer

No one understand about my pain
No one care about my broken
No one get to know about my deeply heart
No one give me an embrace affection

Where I can get some one to know me
Where I can leave all my sad
Where I can throw away my suffer
Where……, I just can only be kept quiet
