FAHRENHEIT 451
No books allowed
Funny cartoons uncritical
Pictures for entertaining
They burn classics
Shakespeare, Dickens, Dante
Burnt at the stake
No books at school, no dictionaries
No history, no biographies
Burn whole libraries
A Fireman's job
An Applauding mob
Flamethrowers make singing pages turn
Creating poetical bonfires
Sweltering heat at 451 degrees
Ashes to ashes
Lifelong people being spied
Lifelong people spy
Where can I hide that book?
Look around, just look
In the baby's pram, the ventilation shaft?
Read at night, read with electric light?
Who informs?
Your neighbour or your wife
Literally destroying literary life
