So, I wrote a book, a novel so long,
One hundred and sixty K words.
My heroine’s fierce, immortal, and strong,
Hates humans so much that it hurts.
5000 years old, and Aria's done!
Wants to kick the bucket - just die!
Living forever has long lost its fun,
She’s worn of the ancient lie.
With stress piled up, she goes to a shrink,
And rants for an hour straight.
She paces his office, sour, on the brink,
Mood split between rage and hate.
But Jacob (the shrink) believes her somehow,
A miracle, strange and new!
So off they journey together now
To an oracle - their only clue.
The oracle whispers the cure is found
Within "The Book Of Life,"
They learn it’s kept on sacred ground,
Guarded by a nun with a knife.
The book reveals there’s a curse to reverse,
And relics they’ll need to find.
But things keep sliding from odd to worse,
And Jacob unsettles her mind...
The pile of artifacts grows quite insane,
New travelers join the group.
They share the laughter and the pain;
All over dried noodle soup.
Jacob falls first, and he falls hard,
Knowing there’s no real chance:
Aria’s immortal, he is scarred,
And his shyness blocks the romance.
Will she fall as well, or keep up the wall?
And will she go through with the curse?
Will she go on and end it all?
Would it be better or worse?
If this teaser worked and you’re on the hook,
It would mean a lot to me,
If you’d take a look at my snarling book:
Named "How to End Eternity."
The book brings romance that sneaks up slow,
Adventure in every scene,
People from a long time ago,
And more for the in-between:
Action ignites, with relics and quests,
The secrets of archaeology.
No **** - the scenes in locked up chests,
But humor - I guarantee!
And best of all: it’s free to read,
No cost, no, nothing to pay.
Just send a DM, I’ll take the lead,
And send the link your way.
HA!
Yes, I wrote a poem about a book I also wrote.
Shameless self-promo!
Okay, a tad bit of shame, but hey - I'm honestly proud of that book!
