The Players Revisited

#NaPoWriMo2020  #Day15 TSL

Epilogue poem on novel

My Novella “ The Players”
Is way too short to make it
To novel status
Although I went thru
The napowrimo competition
My characters had to end
Their wreckful romping thru life
Just so I could win the certificate
The mistake was mine
I do admit to it.

So Tilly, Tilly, Tilly
We shall see more
Of your delusional skills
Hurting and destroying
Everyone you say you love.

And you Nick,
Con man per excellence
I’ll have to resuscitate you
From the grave to allow you
To continue to sponge from
The ladies who fall for you
And your unending scams.

Together we shall laugh,
Cry and sigh all the way
To your natural end,
To the final words
Delivering me with a complete
Uncut novel.
What an achievement It will be,
Can’t wait to write it!
