i was too jaded
i felt very poor and all that
i extracted from the piggy bank of past rewards for labour
and poured my self over a tantalising buffet-spread of second-hand books
i clutched on to my satchel
i inspected the notes cautiously
i fell in love with three plump and colourful books
i proudly flashed purchasing power
three unread plump and colourful books
neatly wrapped in old newspaper
and placed into the hollow of a blue plastic bag
are the newest members of my life and my home
the euphoria is boundless
it feels like a brand new blood transfusion
iLove
