but it's boring
and dry
tiring.
the writer goes to great lengths
to tell you in detail
all the things you don't really
care about. you had such
high hopes, it being on the new
york times best seller list
nineteen weeks in a row,
and maybe by
page 200 it will
grab you by the collar
and keep you reading, but
your impatience
has grown steadily throughout
the years.
by page ten the book
is either on the shelf or
holding a door open that
needs a hinge adjustment, or
just thrown across the room
towards the circular file.
