ATTENTION BOOK REVIEWER...HERE IS SOMETHING YOU CAN USE FOR THE LEAD UP TO THE FINAL DAY OF NATIONAL POETRY MONTH...IT'S A POEM ABOUT EVERY POET'S DREAMS OF GETTING PUBLISHED

So, it's almost the end of National Poetry Month and you haven't found any new poems that you really like, yet? And, the poetry that you did find was so heavy to read that it almost gave you a hernia?

Well, here is one last poem for National Poetry Month and it lives up to every poet's dreams.

It starts off by meeting a hotshot agent from Hollywood and it finally ends with a publishing deal! (At least that's the way the poem is supposed to end, but it goes on for a little bit more with a heartfelt poetry pitch.)

"IT WAS THE FINAL DAY OF NATIONAL POETRY MONTH"

Copyright 2015, Robert Barrows

It was the final day of National Poetry Month

and I just made a great connection

She was a hotshot agent from Hollywood

and she had already brought in

a string of hits a mile long

She looked at my stuff and she said

"Barrows, this is exactly the kind of stuff

that they're looking for.

You got any more?"

I told her about some of the songs I co-wrote

and I told her about the video tombstone

I invented and a book I wrote

called "Cemetery of Lies"

Then...She slipped out her phone and said

"Come with me to my office"

And in just a short while

we were already getting offers

for movies, books and TV.

I said the classic wannabe

writer's line...I said

"How much can I get and

how much can I get now?"

And she said "Don't worry about that.

Leave that to me."

A few weeks later we reviewed

all the offers and we picked

out the ones that we wanted to sign.

Ain't that the way it's supposed to happen?

YES...BUT THAT'S NOT

ALWAYS THE WAY THE POETRY

DREAM GOES...SO, THE

REST OF THE POEM

GOES LIKE THIS...

So, if you're an agent, publisher or producer

and you're looking for your next string of hits,

give me a call and let's do some business.

I've got poems and potential song lyrics

and a book that will create a whole new

genre of storytelling, perfect for
