Hoop Jumping Writers The writers have to jump thru hoops Like trained pet dogs for a biscuit The biscuit is a publishing deal Or poem in print or online story The publisher says jump The writers ask how high? Have you ever seen jumping writers? The funniest sight you’ll see All jumping together jump jump jump! Jumping thru hoops to get in print Doing anything for a deal Some even leap or somersault How do they manage it? Dear little small time writers Who dream of the big time Want their name up there in lights Will their play sell out Broadway? Maye you’ll be the next Jackie Collins Write something new and original Jump thru hoops the same old **** They tell every newbie writer One day you’ll make it big Each bit of writing or poem or song Must be better than the last one What if the writer declines? To be big or well known I refuse to hoop jump! I write simply for me…
