I am a bookshop manager

And have been one for many years

I only work in towns beginning with C

Cirencester Cheltenham Coventry and Seaford

In that time I have seen many things

Including the world famous author

Who stole her own signed books

I blackmailed her for six years

And had my own poetry published

Using my pen name which was indeed my own name

She/Her and I also had an affair on Saturdays

In the Grand Hotel in Chelsea

I was also given a small but significant role

In the movie Eternity and a Day with Bruno Ganz

My name is Anita but my stage name was Sonia

Which was used in the Greek movie of the same name
