fiction is real
i see it on the library shelves
and feel it in my heart
a midsummers night dream
hamlet
king lear
romeo and juliet
the taming of the shrew

last action heroes
battle outside
the gates of mordor still
saruman and gandalf reappear
and are gone again
whole worlds of middle earth
their toys
somewhere the dragons sleep
whilst heirs of bagginses
sneak amidst untold treasures
in mithril waistcoats

the next generation
loads at the train station
in anticipation of wonders
they cannot yet imagine
beloved hogwarts
learning spells
awakening unto
a hidden wizarding world
imperfect leaders
true friends

though my elven daggar blade
glows dimly
at the folly of man
and wands flicker unseen
guiding fate for and against
slytherin beasts
yet star-cross'd lovers
defy eternally
the montagues and capulets
to live and die for each other
tonight
in tragic romance

Cool read Slowhand..

This is why I love poetry. Thank you for allowing us to read it.

library shelves.... i miss books, actual
paper books, already :(

it all together,i read it three
