This is Why I Write

Post by dios4vida » August 25th, 2011, 12:12 pm

I think most of us can relate to this visual poem about the love of books. This right here is why we read, and why we spend hours upon hours at our keyboards. Anyone need to remember why we labor over our books? For this.

What a beautiful sequence. I think it's especially summed up well in the early scene with the books taking flight from the birdcage.
