the reading 😻

A humorous look at poetry exposure

I've got a reading!

And the venue's all sold out.

It's an old phone booth

that some company threw out.

Standing room only

you can get in by arrangement

I'll just hop out

for the term of your engagement.

If you show up 

you won't even need a mask

'cause you'll be standing 

on the far side of the glass.

My voice sounds muffled 

in the sound-proof enclosure

so my poetry won't really 

be getting much exposure.

For my fan base 

it's the ideal place to show.

See, I can do the reading 

and no one else will know.
