buy you a bigger

for
your big teeth and

my
head right inside
your enormous
jaws to make sure
you were okay,
and 1 would say,
'I love you,
my
ferocious alligator.'"

you plenty of meat
to eat, if that is what
you liked. And
would sew your
sheets

after all, ripping
them would be
an accident.

into your
newly mended
sheets every
night and say,

sweet, terrible
