The Novelist Portent
Johnny E. Mahaffey

How can I tell what I think
till I see what I say?
—E.M. Forster
THE BLANK NOTEBOOK
Jaded, lost
Forgotten
Outcast
to the fringe class
of a societal
geode
all teeth—
an abyss
with nothing but
a pen
paper triple priced
with lines wide open
nonDestiny
here to stay
judged with bliss
until time's tale
is told—with pen
and ink
on lines unjudged
cast out
for the masses
construed at will
