Review of My New Book

“Poetry book of the year!!” – Time
“Takes verse to new levels!!” – NYT
“Never laughed so hard!”
“Funny and tugs at heartstrings simultaneously!!”

“I laughed AND cried my eyes out”
“Laughed through my tears!”
“I cried spaghetti!”
“You what?!!”
“I cried spaghetti”
“You can’t cry spaghetti!”

“I did. Red stuff all over my collar!!”
“That was ketchup!!”
“OK. I cried ketchup!”
“You spilled ketchup from your french fries”
“I didn’t have french fries!!”
“Sorry. Onion rings”

“It was because I was crying so much!!”
“You’re just emotionally dehydrated!”
“Emotionally what?”
“Dehydrated. Like tearful but… chunky.”
“That’s dreadful.”
“YOUR interpretation.”
“My interpretation is that it was blood!”
“It’s just a ketchup metaphor”
“That’s how deeply the book affected me!”
“Why don’t you just finish your review?”
“I did. It’s on your shirt.”
