Slowly but Surely I Am Eating the Library

There is nothing you know
that you have not learned
from the books
that you devour

Reality is not that way
let's get this straight
out on the table
right here, right now

You know
not a single thing
of what's really out there
and you blame other people
for the pressure you feel

This is what you are
it's time to accept it
face the facts
you're a reject,
you like it that way.

You are misled and
walking very fast.
Where are you going?
To the library
to eat some more words
that you will use in your own conversation.

You know what I think,
now tell me what you do
it seems a little odd
that I still take the time to talk to you.
