Here lies a book
whose cover can't be read -
well maybe sometimes,
depending on its theme.
Today it's all about drama
and grandiose statements.
Oh how I weep
and lose myself
in the tragedy
till I discover
that's not my genre.
Comedy extraordinaire
floods my imagination.
Such stinging wit
that the cutting words
are worth it.
Have my attention
for all the intrigue
you surround me with.
I'll flick through the pages
before I wonder whether
I've been duped.
Is this the real story?
All the chapters
of this young author
are out of order.
Pages missing
The contents strewn
across a timeline
blurred by fiction and fact
glued together.
This book that never
really reveals itself
doesn't know that I love it
at any price.
