Reading a Book

I learn new things at Hogwarts
And swim with a mermaid
I take my aptitude test
Admire Katniss’s braid

I ride dragons in the sky
Then put fires out
I travel back in time
And hang out with Scout

I run with the Gladers
In the scorching sun
Then play hopscotch with Hitler
Which isn’t much fun

I live out on the prairie
I dig holes in the ground
I move to California
When my ranch is burned down

I do everything, go everywhere
Every single cranny and nook
I am lying, flying, dying, crying,
When I am reading a book.
