Library Poem by Dylan Rivera

Library



We’re all rats.
Our fingers typing,
Sounding like mice,
Scattering cupboards.

Lying barely awake to fill our quota
Of accomplishment.
Silences louder than any operatic shout.
Gulping down food substances
That sound like car collisions.

Whispers,
Like thunderous rain.
That boy over there flipping pages,
mine as well be slapping the desk.
The library is the loudest place I know.
