The Shaft of a Quill

This horny shaft of ruffled feathers
Is hollow and needs to be filled
This shaft has become a hard ballpoint pen

It needs secretion within parchment
It is filled with ink wanting to write
Without you I have writers block

I will glue your pages together
Placing my hard cover around you
I need to be in your table of Content

I will turn your pages over and over
I will never dog ear anyone's page but yours
My Quotes will be long and hard to understand
 
With each stroke of this pen thinking, then
Writing and filling this book from cover to cover
The Main Chapter and Verse

Is You, the most interesting book I have ever read
