There are days
for young Felix
when the sun
never shines.

Everything for him
is dark, and dead.

He plods along,
from trick to trick,
never really getting
anywhere.

There is no light
at the end of his tunnel.

There is only darkness,
excruciating pain,
constant suffering,
and disease.

His faith,
and love for
the Blessed Mother
is the only thing
that keeps him sane.

Bobby
