A Forward to the Reader

My meagre tales and meeker stories,
Incomparable to others glories.
Engaged too little in what I am,
Realised my self was naught but sham.
A progenitor to a life well lived,
My sleepwalk broken, my life revived.
Accept my past, but change its future,
This tale is my soul's own suture.
So read a page, I must insist,
You'll strain your eyes and sprain your wrist.
