Bring on the books
So putting away the remote
Shutting down the computer
And I will just read
I will find myself
Pressed in the seams of pages
Traveling along lines
Swimming in paragraphs
I will feel the technofog loosen
And let my mind breathe
Find the happiness
In dusty smells and yellowed pages
Bookstores are my dragon’s cave
And I swim through volumes
Like pirate’s treasure
