Discarded Valentine

A rough cough
From the other side
Brings me back
 
To the silence sitting here
In the library
Of the sun
 
I look across and see
An old woman
Refusing to sit down
 
She looks like she has eaten
All the books
And come up crazed with thirst
 
But tall and regal
As the guards
Escort her out
