Lost and Found

Listen to poem:
Lost & Found David J Walker The hardback book bore a Certain air of confidence Of the permanence Of its presence In a library’s dust Thrust high Upon a back shelf Waiting for the curious To rediscover the order of its letters and the messages hidden in its pages in a thousand years one hundred sages will work on reinterpretations
