Reading through the Night
It's a form of gluttony.
To take a taste of some
great book, something
you didn't know that
you were craving, but
ten pages in and you
know you are going to
eat the whole thing
more quickly than you
can enjoy it, racing to
an end you wish would
never come, chewing
through characters,
inhaling plot, and
swallowing chapters
whole like a ravenous
castaway with some
new flotsam arrived
upon your shore.
