BOOKSTORE LADY
There was a saleslady
in a bookstore
who made books
her companions.
She worked through
lunch, late into
the evening.
Every evening.
When all the
storefront lights
were out, there
you saw her, sorting
books, rearranging
shelves, cataloguing,
making lists, balancing accounts...

About the Book
If we live each day just as it is, a whole world in one day, then we discover infinite subtleties, signs, symbols. Who do we bump into on the street, what we eat, how is the weather. If we listen carefully, there is a melody being played, quietly in the background. This collection of words tries to capture those melodies, to find the sway in our daily comings and goings.
