At the behest of our literature group
I have a request if you could be so benevolent
Please remove the high taxation from reading material
You want people to read more not less
As reading is a joy that lifts the despondency
The crop of words sowed into fertile minds
Produces a harvest of educated minds
This regime is authoritarian but I do hope there is
Someone here with a few partials of sensibility
In response to the following prompts;
YDWP;
3TC;
FOWC;
RDP;
Word of the day challenge;
#Keepitalive
#DailyPrompts
Keep it alive 
This is an awesome knitting of prompts. Nicely done!

You are welcome.
That’s so sweet of you to say! Since I don’t write everyday these days, I have moved to weekly prompts. Sometimes the various prompts gel, sometimes they don’t. But I will soon write a multi- prompt poem, I promise. ❤️

Thanks a lot! The books in US are really expensive. Even the ebooks.

Even ebooks? Kindle unlimited is great.

It is but it comes with a monthly subscription too.

Oh yes, that’s there. But for someone like me who consumes books every 1-2 days, it works out very well 😀

I so agree with you. There shouldn’t be a price tag on knowledge.

They do. But the government should tax the books.

books are quite expensive yet the author only gets ten percent … so it must cost a packet to produce!

That’s true. But not ebooks. The proceeds should go to the authors.

yes but the publishers take a leg and an arm … it’s why most authors go to indie publishing.

lol not making any effort in that direction … I doubt people read poetry books much, it’s all on the net/blogs! Maybe a collection by several poets but I’m not good enough … yet Punam and Paul are very talented, they could pull it off 🙂
