[hometext] => and other paper heroes...
[bodytext] => The trouble with a king is this. If he sleeps he will insist on being slept with. Many an Eden has been buried this way. He may blame it on witches, a missing party invitation. He might point to poison apples and other garden fruit. But the truth? He will order the decree and believe if beauty can only fall asleep first, the inevitable suffocation will be painless. After all, he is already gone. And kisses? These will be strictly forbidden. Who could stand waking inside a tomb?
