Dime Novel Light-years ago, this story came to a close, With its careworn covers, faded papyrus, Long dead characters once lovingly composed, Cantillating voices now silenced by time. Nearly forgotten, upon neglected shelves, Juxtaposed to bound and gilded editions, Representations of our elapsed selves, Tawdry in portrayal, ever thin on plot. What dreamless sleep awakens me tonight, To send me leafing through familiar pages? As though without my own resolve, I invite This antagonist to undo present ties. Perhaps the epilogue is not satisfied With the way this narrative came to an end, The scene is set and cannot be brushed aside, I wait for the ineludible sequel. © 2002 Corinne Bailey |

I would gladly read sequels to this story, with its fragile, soft imagery. |
