Young Reader To Writer
I have got you in my pocket;
pocket edition of your history.
Remember when I first met you in school.
I did not like class but gosh, you were cool.
Our teacher told us how you jumped drunk into a pool.
To me a Hero, to her a fool.
Now I have read all your stories,
even the biographies.
Scientific but yes, they were terrific.
To my teacher your life and work is rather close,
to what we call nowadays ***********.
Maybe the teacher never knew,
that when it comes to controversial, there is worse.
