“First Fig” by Edna St. Vincent Millay [w/ Audio]
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends --
It gives a lovely light!

PROMPT: Outgrown
Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time?
Well, having an imaginary friend is adorable at nine, but at ten they institutionalize you. So I would say, yeah.

“In the Desert” by Stephen Crane [w/ Audio]
In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter -- bitter," he answered;
"But I like it
"Because it is bitter,
"And because it is my heart."
