library prayer

Witnesses,
from every time and place
to fill my head with knowledge.

Privilege,
filling libraries with books,
academia's finest description of you. 

Sitting 
amongst clattering computers
and the dreams of those before us.

For the history of witnesses,
for the dreams of those who could never have dreamed
For your presence with us all,
I give you thanks.
