1. This is a great poem. I especially like the last stanza. I have a library of 3,000 books 📚

   • Thank you, and it makes sense, in a Bop, the last stanza should give the conclusion.

     • Yes, I saw that when I read the prompt shortly after reading your poem.

2. A box with a library inside! Brilliant, Björn! I love that the librarian ‘dreamt in Dewey Decimal’, and the lines:

   ‘… Let’s move and shake from books
   the verses fit for fancy of the mind.
   So when at last at dawn we will remember,
   cherish love this enraptured day’.

   • Thank you… it had to be a library when I couldn’t find the right inspiration.

3. Love it….and he dreamt in Dewey Decimal! What else?

   • Of course

4. Brilliant! what a big box for the Bop – so good to hear from the librarian who “dreamt in Dewey Decimal,”

   • That is what he dreams in.

5. A box with a library containing a universe of hope, I think. Love these lines: “let’s unpack, expand, enlight
   ourselves and dress the drought in bloom” — a librarian’s dream, Björn.

   • Yes.. it is catalogued and we can just expand it into wisdom again…

6. I get the problem in the first two stanzas, when too much information makes mud.

   • Information overload…yes we know it all too well

7. I love this line: “he dreamt in Dewey Decimal”

   • Dealing with books… that’s the consequence.

8. OMG another profound Aged Librarian

   AND

   I’ really impressed withthe AI image

   much🤍love

   • Sometimes the AI interpret it just right.

     • The Directed Digital Extrapolation (DDE) technique I developed really helps the AI bot deliver pretty solidly the result I seek. You must lead the bot strictly, and it still requires several editing remixes — but the AI can be directed to behave reasonably well everytime. I use Midjourney Alpha. If you’re curious Björn, below here is the link regarding my DDE steps.

9. I love the idea of a box with a library inside, it is a box full of wisdom, hope and dreams.

   • Pandoras more benign cousin I think

10. I wish dreams were made like this, “he dreamt in Dewey Decimal,” Liked your take on the librarian, Bjorn. He always is excited to try something new. 🙂

    • Books are always in your dreams.

11. A very interesting and unique take Bjorn

    • Thank you… I had fun reading this.

      • You’re welcome 😉

12. Box with a library inside is such a good line; to me it would be a line used to describe my brain. Really lovely write!

    • Thank you, and yes I feel the same… and as you know I love libraries.

13. Where can I find one of these boxes 🙂 ??

    • I think they soon can be found at any landfill waiting to be salvaged.

14. Powerful Björn! Loved the AI image.

    • I use bing/create, it’s free and easy to use.

15. Of course! The library!  The art you and AI created is stunning and I loved your poetry especially “ideas always merge turning into mournful shades of -isms.” Thank you for reading mine and leaving me a comment.

16. Your old librarian might like having a box like yours. I like the picture that Bing and AI found for you. I sometimes can find one suitable for using.

17. It is amazing how you write something new about the library or the librarian!

    • The library works as a metaphor to project my thoughts on.

18. It is amazing how every time you write about the library or the librarian, you bring a fresh angle.

    “dreamt in Dewey Decimal,” is brilliant!

    Love it.

19. ”and dress the drought in bloom”

    I really like this wording.👁️
