an elegy for avenue books

call me montag.
again
_ _ _ again
      again
      again lest I forget.

I have committed to memory Tagore.
Who chose who is unknown;
but that our memories have destinies is certain.
My beard has grown since that day,
   head has less hair,
   features are more aquiline.

Yet I barely remember the day the bookstore closed,
there just isn’t enough room in my head.

I guess there are more important things to remember.

An interesting write, glad I popped in

Maree.

Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.
(by Virginia Woolf)
