dusky book store

scent of mold and words,

shelves lopsided,

piles stacked uneven

cashier at small round desk

could even be a fixture,

touching book flesh

leather embossed

crackle spine,

fabric , cardboard,

trembling nerves

anticipation,

sliding out of shelf

mottled pages

gold leaf edged,

type not seen anymore,

wallet beats as a

separate heart,

wanting to part

with dollar flow,

so many

so much infidelity,

the yearning has a keen edge

trying to objective,

to select the ones

you want to share

your home and

life with.
