Reading Is A Crime.

Goldfinch60



There was a crowd of people

Standing at the bus stop

All of them looking at their cellphones

There was another man

Just sitting on a bench

He was reading a book

Suddenly a policeman arrived

He drew his gun

Pointed it at the man and shouted

“Put that down,

Whatever it is your holding

And walk slowly towards me

With your hands in the air!”

 

Is this what life will be

Will be in time

When reading books

Reading books is a crime!
