  • 1 When You Lost Your Toys
"When You Lost Your Toys" is a character study in verse, investigating the bizarre relationship between the Narcoleptic and his friend, the Kleptomaniac. Sometimes friendship is learning to appreciate one another's best qualities; you spur one another on to greatness, to generate empathy, good will, fair weather, a culture of optimism and support, you fling off the shackles of shame, compromise and long-suffering, learning to trust your intuition, to trust in the better angels of our nature. And sometimes friendship is best left unobserved; you learn to live with what you've got, take the role available to you. Either way, the only way forward is to let go.
