Writer's Block

If you knew what I was thinking,
When I wrote this story,
Would it change the way you looked at me?

If you knew who I would kill and who I would spare,
And all about the twist I put 
In chapter seventeen,
Would you still be shocked?

If you knew what came next,
Every comma and fullstop in the text,
Would you still read me?

If you knew this story word for word,
Would the ending make you laugh or 
Would you slowly start to cry?

And could it be that, 
After some time,
You'd dig out this story
And read it again?

Would it be like the first time?

The Bilge Master
