Library

I walk the halls of the library
not needing a Dewey Decimal system
as 
there are books of painting
and some in languages other than mine

the quiet is deafening
it’s a perfect design

lots of stories, fiction
all the planets align

when I go to the library 
in an imperfect world 
every thing is fine 

next time I’ll get a 
book of poems but I decline
about poetry and how
to write the next line.
