Excerpt from Real Boys: Being the Doings of Plupy, Beany, Pewt, Fuzzy, Whack, Bug, Skinny, Chick, Pop, Pile, and Some of the Girls

I know it's folly to complain Of whatsoe'er the fates decree Yet, were not wishes all in vain, I tell you what my wish would be I'd wish to be a boy again, Back with the friends I used to know, For I was, oh! So happy then But that was very long ago. - eugene field.
