Piled up on the shelf
Stacked up mounts
Filled up to the corners
Till they spill like water

Scattered all about the house
Under pillows under chairs
Playing hide and seek
Surprising me when they appear

Messes on the table
Some opened
Pages torn
Dog-eared

Covers glittering in the sun
Like colorful autumn leaves
Lying on the ground

I pick one up
Flip through the pages
Where different markers
Have left their traces

The dweller
In a house of books
