“image is everything”: literary sensibilites
“All good and true book-lovers practice the pleasing and improving avocation of reading in bed … No book can be appreciated until it has been slept with and dreamed over.”
― Eugene Field, The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac
literary sensibilites
if image is “everything”
does that not judge
the book by the cover
so many books
have nestled snugly
in my grip
from the tattered
paperback
to the pristine
hardback
in a designer
jacket
truth be told
the smoothly worn
paperback
well loved by
a previous reader
dog-eared pages
notes penciled in
make it evident
the love shared
with another reader
kindle be dammed
intimacy with words
demands pages I can turn
kindle will not
soak up my tears
nor dribbles of café
and will not sit quietly
on a shelf
awaiting discovery by
future generations
it will lie in a landfill
with other toxic “disposables”
a casualty to latest technology
bisous,
léa
