When I Was Young (Exercise)

When I was young I believed
characters in books were real.
I would read the same things
over and over again, trying to
see and learn all I could about
their world.  As I got older,
I felt the same way about
movies:  the people, the places, it
didn't matter if it really was
"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away."
I now believe that I was
right all along, that when a
character is written down, it
comes to life.
