I Gobble up Books for Dinner! Spread them thick with butter and jam, Place them as leafs in my salads, Crack them open like clams! I Gobble up Books for Dinner! They make me feel hearty and full, Fills my tummy, fills my mind, I slurp up words by the spoonfuls! I Gobble up Books for Dinner! And now it's time for dessert, Line up my sprinkles and syrups, To form a delicious play on sherbet! I Gobble up Books for Dinner! Until I become quite overstuffed! Such wonderful meals that they make, I just simply can't get enough!

Praying with all my might to the Lord. "Please save me, please help me." "Please reach your hand out to me!" I recall strongly the agony of those long, grey years. The agony of prayers unanswered. Sinking deeper into the dark depths of an ocean filled with despair. My heart becoming weaker without hope... Even the world slowed down until it froze over. Even my breath could no longer escape my throat. As cruel, twisted hands wrapped around it. Misguided hand
