The ocean
Ocean
green, blue
glittering, changing, calming
foam, whitecap, flood tide, ebb tide
sparkling, surfing, coming
waves

In the stacks
The books are whispering
about lost loves,
murders for money
and passion.
They also share,
so limited,
and out of date,
human knowledge.
The stacks are silent
about students'
hugs and kisses,
about promises of love,
dates under the stars.
An old librarian found
one morning
hanging underwear
on Encyclopaedia Britannica,
volume L.
