Jail...bait

Ha! You fell for it!

Now that I have your undivided attention, consider this…

As a writer you have the power, for mere seconds at times, to hold your readers captive. Drawn like moth to the light, and unwary of the fate you have chosen for their hungry minds. You are the warden of the prison you’ve created. You can torture them with erotic lines of pleasure. You can make your words sing and watch their soul quiver. You can poke at their emotions and squeeze the tears from their bleeding eyes. You can run a light shiver through their spines and infest their mind with scary thoughts. You can do wonders! You can plunge them in your world and suffocate them with your imagery. You can scream out the sorrows of love and whisper the joy of togetherness. You can do miracles! I’m sorry if I overwhelm you, it’s just that I am looking at limitless possibilities.

And so my question is simple, o warden, what, if anything, will it be?
