My First Royalty Check

My first royalty check
Was such a disappointment,
Only one book got sold
Make sense? Believe me, it doesn't.

I have waited six damn months
For what? Only this,
I tried to hold the tears back
My anger, I couldn't dismiss.

I did everything myself
Except, publish it,
Maybe I should be my own publisher
I don't like this, no, not one little bit.

I was am so fed up
Thinking this next book, will be my last,
But, I won't give them the satisfaction
This disappointment, will never pass.
