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
