And now it’s my turn to add line #12…<\/p>\n

If you are reading this
\nyou must be hungry
\nKick off your silver slippers
\nCome sit with us a spell<\/p>\n

A hanky, here, now dry your tears
\nAnd fill your glass with wine
\nNow, pour. The parchment has secrets
\nSmells of a Morrocan market spill out.<\/p>\n

You have come to the right place, just breathe in.
\nHoney, mint, cinnamon, sorrow. Now, breathe out
\nlast week’s dreams. Take a wish from the jar.
\nInside, deep inside, is the answer…<\/p>\n

Next up are:<\/p>\n
