A Quick Read
She places him in a bookcase.
His compliant spine
sandwiched between the others
that occupied her immersion
those three days in May.
There has been a new discovery.

I like the reference to “his compliant spine” and the image of him being shelved between others, making him feel just as irrelevant as the rest, or like he is no more special? The implication that he has also taken it gracefully, even if it’s not what he wants.
A quick read, but with so much depth as usual! I love reading your poetry!

Glad you enjoyed it! A very accurate interpretation. And I love that is longer than the poem.
