Ten Chapters
it’s not ten chapters
and happy ever after
because,
for every tear spilt
there is an ounce of laughter
i think that –
human kindness is a milk
that comes from the inside
but be careful of the taste
in case it is not pasteurised
it’s not ten chapters
and happy ever after
James Garratt – August 2002
