Dust covered shelf - a poem by Clive Martyn

The bookcase is full,
Crammed full of King and Koontz,
Horror lying upon horror,
Vying for attention,
Space,
But there is none,
Except for one shelf,
A single shelf,
In pride of place,
Empty,
Dusty,
Waiting for my books,
My words -
I will fill it one day,
One day.

Love the idea of this dusty shelf, waiting for the books... Wonderfully done take on this prompt.
