Leaving


Thoughts of Leaving Someday

From ditties et lettre
of Abe Isaacs

Six bookcases lining the wall and filled on the inside with jacketed books and above with two philodendrons (one split-leafed),  two sensaveria that bloom every third year or so, an old microscope, test tubes on a rack, an oak bowling pin, a bulb that he found on the beach, and a glazed bookcase from his grandfather -- a shaman of a different ilk -- that one filled with sacred books. On the wall were diplomas and certificates and pictures of der alte hexenmeister from Vienna. Then, again, there were five chairs, a desk, a couch and an intention to leave this office some day.
