I’m sick of this chapter. I’m sick of science fiction and horror and fables. I should be able to choose my own genre. Fantasy. It doesn’t really work that way.
When someone writes a poem. The poem exists. It doesn’t have a choice. It has to be read. It has to be printed. It has to be spoken. Forever. Until the day the author removes it from the shelf and the binding goes stale.
I was the kid in 3rd grade who would skip to the end of the book to see if the rest was worth reading. I am that kid. And I am sick of reading.
