on Windows is Shutting Down by Windhover, 18 minutes ago
End of an Aperture.
A window closes and you open one inwards to enable your quill to write a wrong, W.
All the more poignant as I am afforded brevity of a certain insight. All the more impressive as your words meld with the melancholy this event conceives.

Better Dead Than Read!
Hahah. Can relate here, Pap. Perfect(!) title to a splurge of bad-conscience riddled by book-worms galore.
Slightly long but like a night tossed and turned perhaps it has to be, and besides, talk of books always heightens the interest in this punter!
All the unfinished books left littering the wayside, like girlfriends unconsummated, wagging fingers of disapproval, would certainly disrupt nocturnal musings of any avid reader.
Still at least you have a list denoting your listlessness, Pap, so you have a handle on your tasks ahead. And you could (even though it´s cheating) hop over Greybeards somnolent passage (as long as you read it later) and read on. The Ents are afterall somewhat of an aside, like the whole meaningless (to the plot) Tom Bombadil section in the Hobbit.
Cool closing image of tomes open maws mouthing "Read me! Read me!" reminds me of the meat-eating plant in Little Shop of Horrors "Feed me, Seymour, feed me".
Classic.
Cheers

PS. delete "d" in surprised, fifth to last line.
