Book Burning
I think of all the books
Burned throughout history
Such a nice waste of paper
As for the knowledge
Contained therein, well
That always existed
Somewhere else
Truth can’t be destroyed
It is a natural element
Making up everything
Our collective mind
Is slow on receiving
Information, this
Like all things
Takes time
