I eat bugs: box beetle bugs. I have a lot of boxes.
Most of the boxes are filled with books. I collect books. I seldom have the courage to read them. Since I feel guilty for not reading them, I go out and buy more books. I'm also a collector of authors. I keep lists of all the authors, their bibiliographies and their books I own and their books that I don't own, each in their own column. That is, one column for authors, one column for their books I have in boxes and one column of their other books that I need to have in boxes.
Yes, the box beetle that I live on lives in the boxes and books. The knowledge that the books I've bought and the boxes I've borrowed, which hold the books and are home to the beetles I eat, gives me the blues.
