Bones doesn’t care
for violence of any kind.

He especially hates violence
if it’s directed at his body,
which it often is.

If he could, he would
stay in his room.

Occasionally
go to the store
for food.

That’s what he would
like to do.

It’s the food thing
that gets him in trouble,
many times exposing him
to physical violence
on his person.

He’s developed
this nasty eating habit.

He’s hooked.

This is both funny and sad... that eating thing is an addiction we all understand. *S* And satisfying hunger can mean taking risks... there is no easy path. *S* Well done!

Thanks dear Suthern,

That is so true. When you come right down to it, "food" is the true, unadorned, basis for all of human existence. It's a big problem for those that eat too little, and a smaller problem for those that eat too much.

Love Bobby
