Traveler 9/13/10

I have been to Narnia,
Middle Earth, Barsoom, Oz.
Submarining with Captain Nemo,
Caught in a werewolf's claws.

I've been to other planets,
To other places, other times.
I've tasted forbidden apples,
Heard the hidden temple's chimes.

I've fought alongside heroes,
I've been vanquished by the crooks.
I have lived so many, many lives,
In the pages of my books.
