And...(drumroll) "IT WAS THE FINAL DAY OF NATIONAL POETRY MONTH" Copyright 2015, Robert Barrows It was the final day of National Poetry Month and I just made a great connection She was a hotshot agent from Hollywood and she had already brought in a string of hits a mile long She looked at my stuff and she said "Barrows, this is exactly the kind of stuff that they're looking for. You got any more?" I told her about some of the songs I co-wrote and I told her about the video tombstone I invented and a book I wrote called "Cemetery of Lies" Then...She slipped out her phone and said "Come with me to my office" And in just a short while we were already getting offers for movies, books and TV. I said the classic wannabe writer's line...I said "How much can I get and how much can I get now?" And she said "Don't worry about that. Leave that to me." A few weeks later we reviewed all the offers and we picked out the ones that we wanted to sign. Ain't that the way it's supposed to happen? YES...BUT THAT'S NOT ALWAYS THE WAY THE POETRY DREAM GOES...SO, THE REST OF THE POEM GOES LIKE THIS...
