Emily Dickinson has this poem with the line, "There is no Frigate like a Book." Been one of my favorite quotes of anything since I read it because books got me through a lot. Mostly. Drifted away from reading lately, felt the "sanctuary" of them being worn off by the reality around me.

I guess what I'm trying to say is thanks. To the wild magic that let me stay some time and y'all that make up this place. Most likely won't remember anything when I leave or return home, whatever you call it, but I hope something like the remnants of a dream remains so I keep moving towards the future which doesn't look so bleak after all. So thanks.

Also wish my English teacher could see this so she'd be proven wrong about me paying attention in class. That's a damn good poem, she's just boring teaching it.
