I wish that people, and kids especially, bought and read books more. I have went to some libraries here in Mississauga, and in Brampton also, and I swear all the kids that are in there are on the public computers, or waiting to use one. And while I embrace new technology and learning methods, reading books should still be a high priority in any curriculum. Maybe I'm just getting older, I don't know; I would hate to think of where I would be had I not had books.
Anyways, that's all. Buy books, and try to buy them at second-hand or used stores if you can!
"Books buy people/Buy books, people"
when to start escape from
your beloved Playstation,
and pick up a pen to become
the scribe your father wanted?
when to tread out of the den
and away from television?
trade "reality" for another, and
blink to adjust to the sun.
when to "bank on knowledge," though
"knowledge" will not be understood?
when to "bank on the future" when
so few care to pick up a book?
but we cling to the mighty word
like politics to the absurd,
and look for strength in many places -
maybe it's in you,
maybe it's in these old pages.
