Stay with me. Talk with me. Make me talk to you. I am a book yearning to be yanked off the shelf and ripped open. Don't just look at me or skim through. Read all of my words. Consider all of my words. You read the description on the back, maybe the first chapter, You look at me from time to time... But you do no more. The least you could do is read one more chapter! But now you're reading another book. Why? Because my pages are ripped and the cover torn? Is the story too depressing?... If you open the book again you can change it. Make it happy. Each time you look at this book it brightens. Until you look away again. Open me.
