i can feel the intensity

rising within every page

whoops

i stuck my phone

and the novel

in front of my face

you might think

that this is a disease

that i have been infected

that some witch's brew

cursed me till my end

but alas, it is not what you think

lately i have come to realize

that i adore books

the library is a sanctuary

barnes and noble

is practically heaven

and this book that

is besides me

as i write this

seems to

connect to me

as if we were playing

connect the dots
