    Summary

    As time went by, he found himself seeking out some kinds of stories above others. Some made him ache with jealousy—wholesome families, protective siblings. Some felt distant and dull, especially when “coming of age” seemed to mean “find a girlfriend.” But friends—friends could be found. You didn’t have to be born with them. There was still hope, away from home, away from his mother...

    He kept reading stories. Stories were all he had. He fought back the loathing that the touch of a book cover sometimes gave him, tried to fill his dreams with things other than nightmares.

    Summary

    Poetry lets Martin open up in ways he'd never dare elsewhere--whether at the job where he lives a lie, or to a mother whose stare grows impatient even when he doesn't speak a word. Yet even to the little book he keeps carefully hidden away, he finds himself pretending.

    Maybe it can be the first place he lets himself stop.
