The Book Resent
Did you read the book yet?
It has everything,
love, hate, indifference,
rage jealousy, kindness;
life and death and all that is
between those two.
Don't read the last page
until you get there.
Each chapter is a season
a place where you stayed for a while.
Most of the great themes
it introduces were chosen by you,
you before you were born.
You forgot, thinking
the book only a novel;
no, it is a revelation,
it reveals itself.
Don't think for a moment
that you did not write it,
it exists in a library
between your mind and Gods.
He co-wrote it with you.
Take a bow.
