Digesting a Poem From a Writer

Everybody has a story to tell Publishers put the pages together to sell Leather bounded and sewn Message marketed over the phone It takes days to years Sweating blood emotional tears A package arrives in the author’s mail Books for donation or sale A commentary on life shared Creative interpretation setting off an understanding flare No one gets hurt in fictional genre Dropping subtle hints entertaining with drama Is there a problem? We do not know Compose a story and let the angry discussion go Expressing opinions in a debate Could solve a situation creating the hate Started by a mistake Needing to be made straight Acting like a safety basin Novelist issues are ray sin An antagonist with an evil glow Displaying topics letting the pages flow Next time a reader encounters a piece Sit back and enjoy the typing tease Put the red pen down Listen to the writer’s sound Contents on the electronic paper counts Especially when the tension mounts After closing a book Digesting the meal from the penning cook Exercising intellectual concern Working out when the lesson is learned A healthy imagination a must When developing fantasy based on trust
