Excuse me if I take a look at what you’re reading in that book.<br />
I’ve <strong>of</strong>ten thought I might — buy one myself to read at night.<br />
But every morning on the train, I just read yours — it’s not a strain<br />
To lean in close, take in each word, and thus, it really seems absurd<br />
To spend the money that I earn, when I can follow as you turn<br />
Each page you read on this commute, your choices always quite astute.<br />
Excuse me but could I suggest, something easier to digest?<br />
What’s that I hear you say? You’ll gladly do it if I pay?<br />
