ADDICTION

...and so I bought

another book

despite all I had to do:

Letters to write,

music to learn,

problems to solve,

along with allI must recall.

So much to do,

while birds go on singing

to cats sleeping

cooled by the sun's

afternoon shades...

So much to do,

while the dead sleepas

we go on, not knowing

what for,or why...

And so I bought another book -where first I lookedat the last page,Trying to find the answer.
