Novelist Online Onpaper offers my thoughts on writing, reading and publishing--and sometimes the world--at the very least on the first of each month and more often by whim. Periodically, I will review novels from the present and the past, published online or on paper. Hopefully, I won't rain on any novelist, especially those seeking their audience without the help of traditional publishers. My novels are available via Kindle, Amazon and Smashwords through my webpage: www.kennethccrowe.com
The
audience expects
a certain bloody
end
as massive Goliath
prepares to
crush the life
out of trembling
David
Suddenly, the
puny guy
propells a
very sharp stone
into the
giant’s forehead,
a happy outcome
for some,
disappointing
for others
History shows
us
despite major
odds
the
seemingly weak
can
sometimes triumph
over the mighty
A suggestion:
try my novel, OOOEELIE, on Kindle
The
frightening turmoil
sails
across my cable screen
An accident
of birth
saved me from
being
in that anxious
horde
I muse on
such thoughts
while they
struggle to flee
from the zealous
Taliban
with their
beards, weapons
and
punishing whips
The
crucible of our culture
will test
those who fled
from that
perilous country
to a nation
where women
can pursue
their dreams
A
suggestion: try my novel, THE
TRUCKERS, on Kindle
