Day 28 - Libraries (poem)

LIBRARIES

I love 'em.
The musty, smellifluous
hug they proffer.
Like a big bosomed Earth mother.
She wants you

in the comfort
of her rows, spread
to birth the proud prose
of my Rock Gods -
Barker, Achebe, Blake.
Sinewy, seductive tales
wrapped skin tight
under covers

pulled across
a tender spine.
