The words of the ages,
Behind us it's true,
Do still guide us,
As all great books do.
The alley of fiction,
Is my home indeed,
And I scorn those, the buyers, who look on with greed.
For my store of wordsmith's,
Fine crafts and ideas,
Is my most favorite,
Place to spend the years.
Minus the fine-folk,
Who walk through the door,
They see my shoppe,
Just as a store...
They buy these words,
With paper-print cash,
And motion for me, as if I was trash...
I'm useless you see,
For I hate them all,
The source of my revenue,
Oh, god all their gall.
Balancing narcissism,
On top of greed,
Must be a feat,
A very large one indeed...
Now if you feel similar,
Favoring pages,
Rather then 'fine-folk',
Then come spend your wages...
Pick up an Edger Allen, or maybe a Twain,
And I shall promise you, you won't feel the pain.
Reality's a burden,
We all know it's true,
So get lost in pages,
And finish with this nonsense of having to deal with people...
