What if? by John Mark Sanico

What if I was the author and every breath of my characters is bound on my ink? And every twist and turn of events lie in my mind. What if the truth can be bent like the stars don't shine at all? Like we are just toyed by a higher being a piece for a big joke. What if you weren't the one reading this? The words are the ones who read you. It enters your mind and then recalculates you. Scary but what if? What if the author isn't the one who wrote this? What if your impulse and greatest desire wrote this? A bland poem for you to bring to life. What if this is you? Just what if?
