When I read a book🤣

Pointing his pistol at my face
this was very grim to see

So I turned another page of my ‘Lonesome lariat’ book

I hoped with all my heart his gun was gone as I read on to take a look

So now “Crikey Moses” I was galloping on a horse

Well I hadn’t ever done this before so I was holding on tight of course

I seemed to be riding bareback without a safety saddle

To save me falling off and harming myself I turned that page to skedaddle

Eeh I put my western book away and placed it high upon a shelf

I didn’t want to be a cowboy 
I would definately hurt myself 

So I picked up a another hardbacked book this one was a thriller 

I was drawn to it’s title of “How to catch a killer”

Well would you ‘Adam and Eve it’
I had only read three pages

Here I was dressed up in pantaloons from the period of the middle ages

And yes I was a murderer holding an axe and shield in my hand

I was the most notorious medieval killer in the land

So again I put this awful book back in it’s original place

Along in the history section of the library book case

Huh I wasn’t having much luck enjoying a good read

 But then I espied a title which should be very nice indeed

“Snow White and the seven dwarves” now this sounded more like me

And yes I knew it was a children’s fairy tale but this is my cup of tea

Ahhh beautiful black-haired Snow White with her seven kind hearted little men

I was halfway through this well-known story when I changed my character again

All of a sudden and from out of the darkest blue

I turned into that wicked step Mother well I didn’t know what to do

I didn’t want to look into the mirror 
yet that is exactly what I did

So before I heard the mirror tell me my fate well I closed the book and hid

I don’t read novels very often but on those occasions when I do

My imagination completely gets carried away to how ? or why ? and who ?

I always don the character and it’s just like being in a dream

Where nothing at all is just my inventiveness but everything feels extreme

So the best thing for me to do is not to read at all
