Thickness

Sergio Umbria

Compositor: Sergio Umbría

By the thickness of the dust on the books of a
Public library culture can be measured
From a town, the culture of towns distills
How sacred books are to them

Culture leads us to always read, because
In books there is wisdom, knowledge
They are the ones who speak in silence, listen without interrupting
It gives you without wrapping, the books are the door of
Culture

By the thickness of the dust on the books of a
Public library culture can be measured
From a town, the culture of towns distills
How sacred books are to them

He who breaks a book shows the degree of ignorance
That he owns, the one who has no culture looks at the books as
The worst punishment he can have, the one with culture
See the book as the source of food for the spirit

By the thickness of the dust on the books of a
Public library culture can be measured
From a town, the culture of towns distills
How sacred books are to them
