A Novel Idea
~
There's a novel in there
somewhere lurking
between silent pages
waiting for the blood ink
to run through verse and phrase
creating imagery enough
to captivate, create
an emotion, thought, reaction
it's an ideal concept
just sit down and write
type away word after word
earn enough to retire
be a success
one book, one hit
that sales master-stroke
a writers passion
the obsession
to write, to succeed
I chase it daily
and in all honestly
that novel idea
its almost killing me
