het·ero·nym

First Known Use:

13: content
Oh, she could never be content
With new books that she read.
She hated plots—their twists and turns
Just scrambled up her head.
And content was an issue,
too—
Some subjects she abhorred.
Though (truth be told) there were some books
Whose stories she adored.
She loved those vampire books (the ones
With Bella and E. C.).
And Harry Potter turned her on—
But only decently.
And so, content, she read for
years—
Until one day near dawn
A loving vampire bit her neck,
And then her life was on!
