It used to have ten digits, now it has thirteen.

It’s like a license plate for your book.

Identify your book by its ISBN.

What kind of a fool would try to write a poem about an ISBN?

A song can have the most ridiculous lyrics, but be amazingly popular if it simply has a good beat.

I’m guessing the same isn’t true with poetry…

Just get the song “YMCA” stuck in your head, then give this poem another shot. πŸ™‚

(Yeah, okay, this poem doesn’t have a good beat, either… it’s just one of those days.)
