A poem by John Kendrick Bangs

The Bibliomiser

________________________________________________
Title:     The Bibliomiser
Author: John Kendrick Bangs [More Titles by Bangs]

HE does not read at all, yet he doth hoard
Rich books. In exile on his shelves they’re stored;
And many a volume, sweet and good and true,
Fails in the work that it was made to do.
Why, e’en the dust they’ve caught since he began
Would quite suffice to make a decent man!







[The end]
John Kendrick Bangs's poem: Bibliomiser
