First Edition

First Edition

There is a chapter still left blank, the endingĀ  not yet clear.
The body of the story weak,
I will leave my bookmark here

When plot becomes a tangled web of fabricated lies,
and the theme has lost allĀ  meaning,
then that’s when the story dies

The preface offered promise of a tantalising tale,
but with a poor selection cast
the theme was bound to fail.

There were too many errors that went by without correction.
A jumbled excuse for a plot
reduced to imperfection.

A writer knows its still a lie, albeit of omission,
a fabricated fairy tale
wont print a new edition

This storybook about two lovers,now no longer smitten,
errata on errataĀ  made,
no final chapterĀ  written...

Written
in conjuction with

I love your innovative ideas for writing...thats what keeps poetry alive and fresh..lots write about love but you put it in a different box altogether!! I guess thats what distinguishes a great poet from a good one..new ideas and perspectives!! Just what this site should be all about..Love it!! Xx
