After the fire chief left

I am totally perplexed

Was it true was he said?

Is a book just an unimportant absurdity?

The young girl comes to my mind

She seemed to be so frank

With an open heart for everything

I can't resist no longer, I open a book and read

Letter by letter - Word by word

From the outset, there's so much going on in my head

I feel emotions - I've never felt in my life

New thoughts sprout in my mind

These words are so powerful - So full of life

I come to the conclusion

That I haven't learnt reading

To decode billboards and I haven't learnt orthography

Just to write short messages

My wife can't understand my behavior

She packs her things and abandons me

Her belief in the system is too strong

The hardest part of the circumstance is:

After the slamming of the door

She will forget about me

The girl knows more about me

Than my wife ever did

What was the basis for our marriage?

I can't remember...

I become aware of so many things

It's like I've just started to think

I think therefore I am

Reading fills the void I have always felt

People aren't happy these days

The media blocks them from thinking on their own

That's why they can't realize

That they are thoroughly distraught
