HONEST BLURBS
1.
I hope you don't think that it's weird,
but since no one else volunteered,
.... I'll do my own blurbing:
.... "However disturbing,
this book's not as bad as I feared."
2.
Of all the books you could peruse,
filled up with facts you can use,
.... this, when you're done,
.... will leave you with none,
but also with nothing to lose.
3.
This book that you hold is my first,
and thus, I'm afraid, it is cursed.
.... Whatever I do,
.... one blurb must be true:
'This volume so far is his worst.'
PS--
cross-posted with Kate, who actually wrote a real good one! I especially like the first two stanzas, though the whole thing ain't shabby.
