past Rock City we carry the fire!
to the ring; where Führer fights a frail foe!
to conceal what burns at 4 5 1–dire
Big Brother won't notice our hearts aglow
"Understanding: allow their point of view
walk around in their skin; folks are just folks"
Watch the merry-go-round go 'round a few
"More Weight," says Giles, but a witch? deadly hoax
The One Ring finally reaches Mordor
Kings are justly crowned, Bingley marries Jane
The Old Man caught the fish, or so he swore
but Dad, Liesel, Allie, Winston are slain
journeys are sacrificial, lives immured
Cheers to pilgrimage we haven't endured
Special thanks to: The Road, The Book Theif, Fahrenheit 451, 1984, To **** a Mockingbird, Catcher in the Rye, The Crucible, The Lord of the Rings, Pride and Predjudice, Old Man and the Sea

Books teach us much, but at the cost of the eternal pain of their characters
