It might be dull

And repulsive

But contain illumine

Fulfilling content

Or it might be bright

And magnetic

But insipid inside

So please beware

A book cover

Could mislead

To decisions

That could rob you

Of fulfillment

Or that could bug you

And regret its encounter

Hence it is said

Proof of the pudding

Is in the cooking

The taste could be bitter

Or it could be better
