The door hinges on bronze
like bronze but subsequently not bronze
optical surface, porous like rock.
Several stacks with and for shelves
adorned with bright green catalogues
hard-back.
Dust settled some time ago on the uppermost plane
When all is closed, cleaned, emptied out
All politely bound that bright green
and adorned with faux gold leaf lettering
seven zero, dash one five, two nine eight four
to seven two dash one nine five seven six,
so slightly different
to seven four dash nine seven seven, yes twice, one four five
and so on
