Stick Boy and Match Girl in Love - by Tim Burton

Here's a little tale by Tim Burton:




Stick Boy liked Match Girl,
He liked her a lot.
He liked her cute figure,
he thought she was hot.



But could a flame ever burn
for a match and a stick?
It did quite literally;
he burned up quick.

The above is my favorite story from the book.
