__ _This may be the end of me. _ __ _With each step I feel my castle collapsing, each step bringing me closer to ruin._ __ _I hear the cacophony of the fair outside. The audacity of these people, enjoying themselves when my time is nearing. Their laughter naught but raucous jeering to my ears. _ __ __ __ “Timmy, it’s time to go!” _The siren’s song beckons, my end is nigh. Please cruel mistress, wait just a little longer. My whole life I’ve waited for my time in the castle, for the sheer bliss I can find with in, only to have it snatched away prematurely. Oh what a terrible fate!_ __ __ “**Timmy, I know you can hear me get out of there right now!**” … .. “_Yes mom, I’m coming._” “Don’t be like that. The bouncy castle sprung a leak, you know its not safe in there. We’ll just come back next year.”
