Storyteller
A good storyteller knows how to make an audience hooked
Making them anticipate each and every move
And crave for a good story while not wanting it to end
For a good story should find a way to always live on
A good storyteller has his cards on his chest
All this time looking at his audience
Building up the tension as people wait
Wait to see what the next would be
A good storyteller has a good ink
Ink that makes the words in the book to glow
As it easily flows from beautiful pieces of ideas
As they make a masterpiece that drips into people's souls
A good storyteller knows when to lie
And make it believable, for if one doubts your plot
They'll try to go deep till they find a flaw
And that's how you'll lose your grip on your audience
A good storyteller knows how to seat at the back
To watch on as people enjoy the show
For his next story lies in their reactions
For he feeds directly from his audience
