While touring on a daily venture
To my dismay there was a misadventure
A mausoleum, but not a corpse kept
Instead olden books lined the walls that wept
Not with joy, but with mourning regret
These mastered works, how could they forget
Creations of ideas, inspirations on paper
Now shrouded in dust, and musty vapour
Bear them no pity, for pity is a loss
For pity cannot view their slumbered moss
Dare then to trek to this musty vault
The ignorance of inspiration, an unknowing fault
