"There was a crooked man,
And he walked a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence
Upon a crooked stile.
He bought a crooked cat,
Which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together
In a crooked little house." ~ Mother Goose
Anneliese, 17, discovered an old story-telling book that had a poem that was purposely ripped out by someone. The ripped page sparked her curiosity but Curiosity killed the cat.
Maybe the satisfaction brought it back?
Or, it just killed the cat. Don't look around in the dark places; evil things are lurking about.
