Winteria Did Not Look Up

How can she balance herself like that?
Did she stack those or did something magical stack them?
What kind of a witch is she?
I don’t know but she sure has game.
Winteria heard them but refused to look up from her book.
She had a daily goal for herself.
She always read eleven books before lunch, 
And an additional six books in the afternoon.
Her goal was to read all of the books in the library
By the time she left for the middle school.
Besides, she was busy swashbuckling another pirate.

Onlookers think the readers are boring. Oh, but they live in their stories!

They sure do! I stayed alive in my books, shutting them was a nightmare.
