Archeologist of Shelves

I climb the shelves

jump the study rooms

and cut my way

through piles of books

 

I plumb the depths

of Google searches

for bits of lost info

and hidden treasure

 

I face the questions

that puzzle the will

of the most knowledgeable

mystics and prophets

 

I dig through the papers

of researchers long gone

to find the answer

we’re all looking for
