Listen to poem:
Lost and Found
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
