Never Read It

They never read
Warts and Peas
They haven’t started
The Old Man and the Flea
Or The Portrait of a Used Car Thief
As a Middle-Aged Man
Haven’t picked up
One Flew Under an Ostrich
Never cracked open
The Found and the Curried
Modest Literary Expectations
The warnings of the future
Fahrenheit 154
Catch 21 in 1983…
