Bookshop Bread

Mystique of mouthful aisle eats intrepid footsteps Bespoke brick shelf scrapers muffle internet tweets Eyes provide sole light source, borers of exploration Closed cover modesty encroaches on curiousity Timorous piled rectangles least represent symmetry Shifted to stained beige paged, folded back scars Markers of importance boast creased corners torn In enthused infusing, informed more with each turn Tattered stacks of spines teeter, threaten to topple Jostle in baskets bulging gloss tortoise shell crust Quintessential bread for society baked concepts Richly impacts soft butter, invites require no RSVP 10th March 2021 Written for Contest: Bookshop Sponsor: Kai Michael Neumann
