The Library MAG
I love to get lost
In the miraculous world
Of words and sonnets and fiction
And history and fables
Of groaning floorboards
And deathly silence
Of unbounded shelves
And limitless words
It reeks of familiar, musty odor
Of adventure and lust and defeat
From a brisk captain’s mate
To an elegant Southern belle
A foe-fighting wizard
Or a vehemently battling soldier
The enchanting library is guilty
Of holding me hostage
Right up until the final word
Of the final sentence
And that reverberating clump
Of the finished book.
