In hotels, I leave books I’ve read in the room’s safe.
Sometimes I lock them, when the book is good,
But most of the time I leave the safe open.
One time I received a message from the hotel reception
A few days after I had returned home.
I confirmed they could keep what they had found,
And added that I had turned down the corners of interesting pages.
But I don’t want to get further into the promise business.
I already invest for a living ; people should judge for themselves.
Anyone can open this kind of safe, given enough time.
