Life is like the library
the author visits hoping you will buy the book.
So many books!
In your youth, you wanted to read them all,
but more so the ones on the second floor,
where you were not allowed to go,
and the section titled “Banned Books”
makes you more curious still!
But being young, you haven’t learned to read yet,
and your mother will not read them to you.
So-
You write your own.
