You Will Know Me


I anxiously await the day

My novel is confirmed to play

To invade your minds

With my tantalizing words

For my characters to wound

To uplift, to hurt.

For the hours I've spent

In silence to toil

To enable the plot

To fester and boil

"What happens to him?

What happens to her?"

All questions I'll be asked

About letters on paper.
