From the prelude it had
my undivided attention.
Cup of coffee in hand
I commenced reading
the tale: "My Life"
The intriguing twists,
the plausable comebacks.
"I" seem to simply bounce back
no matter the size of the
curveball life has in store.
Filled with mystery, drama,
action, comedy and romance,
it's hard for any critic
to categorise, to pinpoint
a suitable genre.
I have barely just begun,
and am truly looking forward
to discovering the
adventures that are
yet to be documented.
And one day, this
manuscript will be published.
Unedited, of course, as
editing will cause it
to lose its impact.
The purpose of this life . . .
