Untitled
Her book was naked
stripped of identifying marks
with nothing but back paper
between it and the words
inside
I wanted to ask her
"Are you making a statement
about how a book
is a book
and all books are good
Or are you ashamed
that you
a 30 year old woman
is reading Harry Potter?"

I really like the layout of this poem. It makes it a much more effective read.
Also, I like the poem itself, especially the last verse.
