Dedicated to my lovely friend _Imperfect_Writing for suggesting the topic of this poem...

***************

Old and dusty

Torn and musty

Feasted upon by

Bookworms lusty

Centuries worth of

Thrilling adventure  

We doff it when  

No longer crusty

Ugly it may seem

Lost all its gleam

Yet once it's been

A partner trusty

Behold the grace

Of a sacrifice

An old book made

Don't be so nasty!
