I Used To Read A Lot

I used to read non-stop, everyday

was not a day unless I did thirty pages

of a novel, poems, recipies. I did not

care what I read so long as it was

in English. Along with  the hour spent

trying to read in French, vocabulary

limited and grammar corrupted,

it was reading.

.

I don't read so much now. The series

of books, one through seven,  align

the shelves and I browse, pull them

down, dust them off, peep in for a visit.

I think I should read this because I

used to read a lot but now my eyes

won't let me and I am so easily

distracted by intrusional thoughts so

not about reading.
