Bibliobella slowly drinks coffee,
and reads the tarot Hanged Man description.
It reminds her of the Sacrifice Vow
for a Superhero Librarian.

The only way to stop the evil man
is to sew a curse on his torn soul.
For the curse to succeed Bella knows she
must relinquish her own soul's potential.

If she dies before the evil man, she
loses the lighted path, and surrounds him
in her apparitional existence.
Death hears these vowed words in stoic whispers.

Two others of powerful persuasion
convince death of more generous endings.
There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous
