Victorianitas

This is just to say:

I have reshelved
the psychology textbooks
that were behind
the sheet music

and which
you were probably
saving
for next semester's exams.

Forgive me
their own shelves missed them
and it's eight thirty in the morning
and since I can't blame you
for the weather
or my headache
or the dust in the Government Publications section
(which is now all over my jeans)
or the pizza
half-eaten
lying next to the microfilms
this will just have to do.
