Run, Rat, Run (Second Version)

Run, rat, run! Run as fast as you can. You must run to earn your bread! If you stop running, You will earn nothing And you won’t be able to get fed. Run, rat, run! Run early in the morning Or run late into the night. Either wake up before Mr. Sun Or wake up with the Man in the Moon For you cannot afford respite. Run, rat, run! You’re the best runner we have! The most successful racer by far! Keep running at this pace And you just might win the race! Thank you for giving us all that you are. Run, rat, run! What’s this? You want extra crumbs? Proposturous! Utterly ridiculous! You’re not even that speedy And you’re already being greedy. You cannot possibly be serious. Run, rat, run! Don’t slow down now Though you puff and you pant for air. If you keep running You will stop foolishly thinking That this life isn’t right or fair. Run rat run! Don’t stop now! You must run all day, all night long! If you really hope to thrive And you really want to survive  You must continue to run strong!...

The Snow Queen's Keeping Room

The Snow Queen looked at her keeping room. Beneath her, on the fireplace ledge, was her servant, a stone rabbit holding a sign she couldn’t read because it was facing away from her. Before her were silver couches with ice blue pillows and a crystal chandelier. Sometimes, people acting like they owned the place sat in her couches. How dare they?! She would glare at them with her dark eyes to make them stop. No one heeded her. No matter. She would stare until they finally did as they were ordered and helped her out of the ridiculous picture frame.
