April 4: 4th poem

This one has 5 and 7 syllables rule, but starts as a strict 5-7-5 Haiku, them meanders into: 5-5-7-5-7, I guess it ends in an opposite of Haiku, 7-5-7🥳

I’m in the Suzzalo Library at UW Seattle, one of the most beautiful buildings inside and outside I’ve ever been to.

My Cathedral

This library my

Cathedral: stained glass windows,

The divinities

Of reading, consecrating

Silence. I genuflect as

I sit here writing

This poem under

hallowed arches protecting

Gospels on every shelf.
