HEROES AND VILLAINS
When I reach the end of an enjoyable story
It’s like saying goodbye to a cherished old friend
The tapestry woven of the hero and villain
Has me enthralled right to the end
An accomplished author will draw you right in
So you follow the exploits with fast beating heart
As you turn the pages you wonder anew
Will the villain become the hero,
Or will he remain true to the part
You know in your heart of hearts
That the hero will vanquish his foe
But for a few heart stopping moments
It isn’t always so
In these days of global unrest
It helps to escape for a while
It doesn’t help to always hear
Doom and gloom on the breakfast file
