A Long Evening

"The night ticks by endlessly. Each second, an eternity. I remain alone in The Red Room, and all I have for comfort is Elephant Blankie. Oh, Elephant Blankie, keep me from harm. Let your poly-cotton fibres keep me warm throughout this wretched eve. Shall morning ever come again? Come, Elephant Blankie, tell me your secrets and I'll tell you mine, and together we shall face the morning with ferocity."
