bargain struck

If you ever had uh
If you ever had a 
If you ever had a notion
- not a "notion" exactly, 
but an inkling, a sojourn,
a presentiment or otherwise 
sentiment - not a "sojourn,"
a sojourn's just a way of saying
a journey you'll be coming back from, 
or think you are - you'd know some things
can be put in words but never taken out. 
Which obviates some part of the process, 
arguably: tell you what. You keep reading, 
I'll stop writing. Enjoy the uninterrupted flow 
of lines, the kind you read between. See, 
what you read between the lines - you 
are the author. Credit is all yours, 
and I can't stand in your way. 
Fair enough? You know 
I neve could stand 
standing in someone's way. 
Not in the ordinary run of things. 
They might be on the way 
to some good stuff
