Page sniffers
There was a time when-
They will say...
From what remains-
We can tell-
Stories.
Ago.
In this time,
Through these
They found each other &
This is how by smell...
Through the ages
sealed between the pages
Vials of hermetic memory...
Though this does not last-
the notes have all but died-
Faintly, there is a sense
only Paper People
remember Reading.
