To Escape

A book is my escape
It lets me dream
I sink into paper.

I use tape
To fix the seam
A book is my escape.

I read about people in capes
The adventures make me beam
I sink into paper.

Break ins and people flying on dragons make me gape,
It still seems
A book is my escape.

They come in every size and shape
In my eye there’s a gleam
I sink into paper.

So as I drape
On a blanket, and plan a scheme
A book is my escape.
I sink into paper.
