Sunday Service

As a kid we'd go to the library every second Sunday
Driving past the churches
I'd ask my father what's up with all the well dressed people?
Never mind that son, he said.
Later I sat in my room with 7 books surrounding me
The only service I ever needed
We aren't that different though
We both found salvation in fiction
No judgement either
These hands hold pens
Not gavels
