Fanstory Benefit Me? Seriously?

by Reese Turner

Fanstory might have saved my marriage!
You see, I really love poetry to write,
But, when I try to read my latest to
Wife, she says, “Honey, not tonight.”

For how many years did I suffer as
I would try to sleep, poetry in my head,
Knowing I had written a masterpiece,
But couldn’t share with she in my bed.

Then one day whilst perusing the web
Per chance came I upon Fanstory -
Where gifted poets such as I could
Find a humble ray of poetic glory.

Mind you, ‘tis not total poet’s Nirvana;
As in marriage, there is some rejection.
There are contests painfully lost, and,
There can be reviews of weird suggestion…

Yet, we poet wanna-bees are family;
We are one in our love of writing.
No matter our level of skill or smarts,
Fanstory is there for us, most inviting.

P.S. I must add, to insure comprehensive
Record of this praise, this poetic toasting,
To wit: For the space to salute Fanstory,
We each paid $5.50 for this grovel posting.
