untouched books crowded his shelves

shiny leather spines and faded first editions, 

meticulously dusted and never read

he was at odds as to the eccentricity of course

questions erupted aggressively on his being

was he the odd man out blessed with knowledge

visibly well-arranged by Library of Congress

rules but very much hungered for human hands

failed miserably on his target setting prowess

tagged to one of his annual resolutions that

kept appearing without fail year by year

bandied about a number of 50 books by December

yet not one to claim success with barely a quarter

set aside with only half of it read as intended

something's ought to give whispered a voice!
