Pageturner

So write
if I be reader of you
stand fast
if you cannot blame me
for dropping a book
at the very middle
if I can't turn another page
out of boredom
say,
have I ever read Paul Auster?
No? Shame on me!
Elfriede Jelinek?
No? Shame on me, mutherfucker!
Perhaps it be fantasy
and how Mr. Potter never drops me
like winds to one of the Walenda Brothers
for I can always trust ye
to help me turn thy page
to make me live again.
