When the Librarian Comes Calling

This library;
Where every page
Lives under cover
Inside a wooden shelf
I leaf through a book
Page after page,
Until the day comes to a close
When the librarian comes
Calling, "it is time!"
what would you do
if you found yourself
at the last page when
the librarian comes calling?
