Torturous One

A Verse in 12 Lines

Writing is my addiction,

it gobbles up time,

yet yields satisfaction,

when a bell rings in a rhyme.

.   .   .

There are worst pastimes,

under the big old sun,

than squeezing out rhymes,

one …by …torturous one.

.   .   .

Like querying lit agencies,

that represent fiction.

If you really crave torture,

there’s your addiction!
