And The Secret Is ....

And The Secret Is ....

A Poem by therisa
"

Don't understand, how my writing is viewed, as powerful, by other people.

"
Don't understand
Why you say
My poetry is
Powerful.

As I write it
With pen and ink
Upon paper.

My frustration mounts
Every time
Someone tells me
This.

Wondering
What do you see
That I don't?

Please
Let it be
Not another
Cadbury Caramilk
Mystery.

For which
Only the Devil knows
For sure.

There was, one Cadbury Caramilk commercial, during the 1980s, which featured the Devil, as He ask, what are you willing to give up, to know the Caramilk secret, with the commercial ending, the Devil ask, "Anything?", while laughing.
