the objects of my room:table  \nand chair,a small notepad,and in my hand,a silver pen.There's a sense of wholenesswithin me now,and it seems to extendthroughout this space.The light and shadowon my walls and floor are nothing apartfrom all that is visible.A tall lampin the corner has been useful to me  \nat times when books were my only release,but tonight my eyes,shaded by dark linesof sleeplessness,are resting in a glowwhose origin is nowhere to be seen.  \nThe Pendant of Childhood  \nA silver fish on a silver chain  \nonce swam in the air beneath my shirt.I would follow him down to the channelsof his world,hidden from the hard light of day,  \nout through the gates of the Mill Pond,around the dock at Centerportand the sandbars of Fleet's Cove,along Asharoken beach and past Eaton's Neck,  \nwhere the water was green,clear and open,and nothing ever slowed our voyage,and almost all that we ever didwas left to the timeless sea.","cbCair3Nu69Dp3GS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCair3Nu69Dp3GS","pdf",1450178,48,"English","# Acknowledgments\n# Contents\n## Self-Portrait\n## The Pendant of Childhood","[{\"question\":\"What is
