The Power Of Ink On Paper

The cloth-bound book
Grasped in an old man's
Hands, has the look,
With its tattered corners,
Of something perused
Consistently by aging
Eyes, its contents used
To sooth a geezer's raging
Against the ending of
The day, his mind waging
War against the thief
Who steals his memories,
The book is his hope, his relief.
