AMY'S DEAL
Dear God, I was taken by a bad man, I got away, but the next girl didn't.
If I promise to be a good girl, when I die, can I sit on a cloud for a while,
be invisible, and get the baddies that you and the Police don't get?
Amy Fox, age 4 yrs.
Dear God, thank you for keeping our deal. But WTF...really!
Haven't we got enough to deal with?
I get we're just physics Erthfolk don't understand yet
but if criminals don't play by the rules, then why the hell should we?
What'ya gonna do? Kill me?
I'm already dead.
Amy Fox, age 32 yrs.
