A poem by Beverly Stock.
Dear poets, pen in hand
Famous be your name
Your books will come
Chapbooks be done,
In ½ Price Book Stores
On earth and if not, in heaven.
Give us your poem
Your daily rhyme
And reject all plagiarism
As we give you your copyright.
And lead us not into tabloids
But deliver us to glossy books
For print is the kingdom,
Online is the power and chapbooks the glory, forever.
Amen.
This poem was inspired by the traditional Lord’s Prayer.
