The words in the attic

4

I raced down the hallway and once I got to my room?

I cep running and then there was my bed I gess I was just lost. lost in my thoughts. Cus I think my eyes where closed. closed like a? like a, jack rabbit that runs into a swomp. but that's just the thing it's eyes wold not be closet. maybe I am a darn dumb rabbit, or maybe I am not even a reference of a rabbit.

It could have been that my legs where like a race horses legs Cus thay couldn't stop. my mind is different from a horses thought Cus well it's not on track like the race horse.

But that's not the point of this. the point is I couldn't stop.

Well I am lost and scerd and mad. I don't want to leve home and I definitely do not whant to go to some little old proper Town. Cus I ante proper.

I snot and flop and cough and, y'all can imagine the rest. I mean, I eat frog and gator.
