POEM: IGNORANCE
Books and balconies
On every side
Written, read,
From sleeping shelves
A to B
And back again
Warhol to Wurlitzer
Walden to Wen
When I was young,
Bindings pressed
My palms were given
Quizzes and tests
And then I loathed
Forced reading
But here it seems
Authors summon
Spirits consume
Readers gazes
And give off
Silence that clothes
My ignorance
