at the library for ghosts

“Excuse me,” said a wandering spirit. “There aren’t any…banned books here, are there?”

The ghost librarian sighed.

“Look around. Everything here is banned, for one reason or another. Banned by the living and condemned to this dead library.”

The wandering spirit looked around in awe.

“All this? But, there are so many. What is left for the living to read?”

“Nothing.”
