                                           A creepy gnome

Not tha small

                   Say    A supersized gnome

Where did you run into them?

At the library

               Hes a volunteer acts like hes a knowledgeable librariannot  I know knowledgeable librarians

Yesterday  Stopped to pickup a book tha was on hold

                                                         It was huge  Hadnt expected tha   A tome

Library has an electronic scale  I coudnt resist

Weighed it

Nearly three pounds

Afterwards I crossed the room to a table a corner chair where I usually sit creature of habit set the book an my satchel down  pulled the chair out to sit

                                                  Excuse me.

Heard the sneer in his voice

I turned

Jah

Why are you wasting library resources to weigh a book?

    Wasting     Electricity

                               Tellya wha

Had a manual scale an weights Idve used it

Our resources are valuable.

I agree

          Cleared my throat  Violence was creeping

Excuse me Im going to relieve myself

Walked away

 

When I returned he moved the book my bag to the other end of the table

I movedem back

Incoming gnome

                   I’ve realized you take this chair, you’re able to look out through the window into the garden, every time you’re here.

You deny others the ability to sit here.

    No one was sitting here

If someone were I woudnt askem to move

I woudnt sit in their lap

                            Now

Woud you go away

Youre bugginme little man

He glared

              Was still glaring when I turned my back on him pulled out the chair an sat

 

I didnt like him when I first saw him from across the room

                                                                Ever happen to you

Youre constantly sizing men up

    You have to say it like that?

You refuse to say you absolutely woudnt sleep with a man
