Ancient Classical Libraries: Attentive Appreciative Ears Poem by Terence George Craddock

Ancient Classical Libraries: Attentive Appreciative Ears

in ancient classical cities
in famous city libraries
a literate reader reading

out loud to an illiterate audience
was an important language alchemist
reading script symbols characters

letters meaningless to illiterate minds
into translated spoken language heard
by attentive receptive appreciative ears
