Beat Up – 21st August 2022

I love a beat-up book
With edges all creased
More than a clean fresh one
Just released

Passages often underlined
Notes along the margin
Give me a beat-up book
Gotten as a bargain

Well-thumbed and faded
But pages all intact
A beat-up book is the best
And that’s a fact!

Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.
