Model Behaviour


So I read a book the other day.
Like actually read it.
And finished it.
*
It felt good.
Like my mind was breathing some literacy air.
*
I sat in my garden, lying
in the sun, with my 2 dogs by my side.
*
I quite enjoyed it.
*
Until I realised that one of the characters just died.
I hadn't been concentrating. And
when I flipped the page,
a character died.
I flipped back, and tried to find out when
and where I skimmed over his death.
But I couldn't find it.
*
I think,
Harry Potter
was the last
book
that
I
actually paid attention
while reading.
