Wojja Fink - Magnetic Muse?

Today I was found by a book
Waiting patiently on a shelf
Amongst the bric-a-brac
Next to a Beatles books of songs
Vases, trinkets, by row and row,
Hardbound and clean as though
Had never read a human eye,
Scripted calligraphy cover in bold style
Red, Gold and Blue
Thought I could read in café awhile
Waiting for the builder
Got a bloody parking ticket though’


And so this book
It danced it shook
Grabbed a hold as if by hook
My hand
£4.00 please, Oh is that all thank you, bye.

Got it home Carole looked
It’s very famous, while she cooked,
I browsed a page and wowed when found
King Alfred made it Old English Sound!
From Latin,
The last wise king of England some say.

Beothius: Consolation of Philosophy,

Forward by Brian Keenan
Lebanese prisoner


Never heard of Beothius
Before this day,
Thank you.
