If you are to be pungent, be brief; for it is with words as with sunbeams – the more they are condensed, the deeper they burn. – Robert Southey
A fun analogy to help us remember to write, then condense, then condense some more. The work of writing is not the writing but the re-writing.

If a verse is condensed too far, it may lose the flavor and emotional intent of its meaning.
