A Holiday Carrel
Stacks of books
I’m moving them around
And culling some
To say I have too many is
To understate
They have meaning inside
Also understates
They have meaning on the outside, too
Color, texture, haptic sensations
Simply looking
Reminders that the world
Is bigger than the walls
That freedom is intentional
It takes a process
To be published

An important point. Bound books, with their weight of paper, their words, your notes, their cover, texture, feel, aroma, have something special. And it is indeed, especially in the modern world, a feet to get published by an agent and or publisher. It’s changed so much. My writers conference this summer made me very aware of that.
