Any closet novelists, short story writers, script-writers or prose poets out there?

The scene takes place in the kitchen of Robert Graves' house in Deija on the Island of Majorca.

The great man is seated at the kitchen table, having breakfast with his second wife Beryl Hodge.

Robert puts down his coffee and looks across at Beryl.

GRAVES: I've been thinking Beryl.

HODGE : Yes, Robert.

GRAVES: I've been thinking that, in order to ensure my continued poetic inspiration, I'm going to have to sleep with lots of attractive young women.

HODGE: All right, dear.

The End

How realistic was this play? And is it true?

Another interesting read.
