Elevator Speech

I need to pitch my book to editors, publishers,
reviewers...let me tell you while we ride this metal cage
a half-dozen floors – my elevator speech.
Am I as willing to talk of recovery? Given the chance
to influence an influence, to reach through another
a mover, a shaker, someone able to spread the message,to tell the world the wonders of recovery...
given the chance do I have my 12-step stump speech ready?
Am I willing to be used in such a way, when I've prayed
for knowledge of God's will for my life, and an obvious answer
appears? What do I have on the ball? Am I ready
to proceed to tell him? Let the words of my mouth
be His.
