Isolated from the Book Shop for Four Months
But maybe not much longer…
A Barnes & Noble is a happy place
Where my book budget goes to lose itself
In the poetry section first, and then
To the music by way of the magazines
A Barnes & Noble is that happy place
Where my weary soul goes to find itself –
And that errant budget – among the shelves
Of civilization in a quiet room
Then coffee and croissants (and a six-foot space!)
Yes, Barnes & Noble is my happy place
