10 books I’m reading presently…

two
sometimes
three stacks
of books
a recinto
of knowledge
not so
silently
by my bedside
lie

they have legs
to move around
turning up
in the living room
the kitchen
the bathroom
and my studio

they return
at night
in the morning
neatly stacked
once more
the circle is
complete
