My eyes open as the sun shines through.
My sensations begin to shake.
My body lies numb, feeling all to new.
Never will I forget this mistake.
Pupils become headlights and chaos intervenes.
Great stories are always built by dreams and by queens.
Step through the swamps, for it’s only waist deep.
Tread lightly is advised for the snakes will want to keep.
Against the earth the shadows will wish you well and
Graceful hearts will hold the wishes in neat little shells, for
It is not attachment that they require but
Everything else that the soul can desire.
Love conquers all is what the fairytales teach.
Move forward you must and practice taking that leap.

How, Too
Many people wonder how, too. You are not alone, and I am an expert. I will teach you how, too! First, you need to remit a small application fee and fill out an application describing the nature of your financial situation and how often payments will be made, as this will have great bearing on how well I teach you how, too.
