Before I dabbled in chemicals
Long ‘fore alcohol was imperative
(Hiding my feelings became essentials)

Why we are addicted to narrative? - Bloomsbury Literary Studies Blog

From government briefings to quirky “human interest” stories and double-blind Pub Med studies, narrative in all its multifarious forms is what we resort to, promising in various measure, consolation and comprehension.
