I was born in a
Fine old edition of Shiller
While I started life
In a private eye thriller
Were book lice
who dwell
in these dusty bookshelves
Later I lodged in
Scotts works ? volume 50
While I passed my youth
In an Agatha Chrisite
Were book lice
attached
despite contrasting pasts
One day while in search of
a new place to eat
He fell down seven shelves,
where we happened to meet
Were book lice
who chew
on the bookbinding glue.
We honeymooned in an
old guide book on Greece
I missed Doyle
He pined for his Keats
Were book lice
fine mates
despite different tastes.
So we set up our home
inside Rogets Thesaurus
Not far from my mysteries
close to his Horace

Were book lice

adoring
despite his/ her loud snoring
And there weve resided
and there well remain,
He nearby his Shakespeare
I near my Spillane
Were book loving
book lice
plain proof of the fact
which Im certain I read
in a book some months back
that opposites
often are known
to attract
