Also, he seems to have next to no spine. Really, it’s like his back is made of jelly. Touch him and he melts, twists, and slide around on the floor.

MOMO

Heartsong

As a tribute to the late poet and peacemaker, Mattie Stepanek. An explanation of who Mattie was and what a heartsong is is in order. From Wikipedia: At the age of 3, Stepanek started to write poetry to cope with the death of his older brother. His first five books are: Heartsongs, Journey Through Heartsongs, Hope Through Heartsongs, Celebrate Through Heartsongs and Loving Through Heartsongs. All five works made the New York Times' Best Seller list. He wrote that a "'Heartsong' is a person's special gift to be shared with others... or a person's 'reason for being.'" Stepanek had a rare form of muscular dystrophy, dysautonomic mitochondrial myopathy. His sister and two brothers died from the disease, and his mother has the adult form, diagnosed only after her children were born. Stepanek wanted to be remembered as "a poet, a peacemaker, and a philosopher who played. It may not win, but I feel that this special tribute to Mattie deserved to be a suggestion.
