Attic

by not-nick

I knew there was love in that attic It had to be found There was love in that attic Lost and I found Inspiration through word and thought Old, red, romantic, poetry To the north I’m lead And I know I’ll find a place Like these books a shelf For after all I’ve been dusted from the attic myself Those fiery red books I knew there was love inside For I’m BookGuy From me no man can hide They needed no library, no vintage store For the pigs live next door And all they do is Whore, whore, whore I know for I once lived in this thought I played pig poker, smoked cigars Even licked pig salt Bust cast out ye stupid pigs They have no authority Some wise minority For those dusty red things Once lost and I find For I’m BookGuy I transcend time I sweep the dust, death and decay Reborn in red books Roundelay, Roundelay

Notes

I need some help from the community on this one. I really need to edit! I feel it needs to find it's voice, either modern or old english, I'd like to convert it too full old english. What do you think? But comeon. I'm not that talented
