Robin—that’s my
cousin’s name.
She makes me smile
and laugh, and she’s goofy.
He’s talking about
the seasons—fall, winter,
stuff like that.
Summer,
my birthday’s
in August.
I don’t like hummingbirds.
They hum too much.
I like to hum
Gospel music.
We have
a cricket
in our house.
They crick
too much.
I know one boy, he picked up
a bumblebee, the bee stung him,
he got all kinds of bumps.
I said, “You got bumblebee
bumps. Don’t touch me.”
I love fishes but
I do not eat them.
I had a scavenger
fish once.
I will not eat a fish
if you put it
toward my face.
If you make me
eat a fish,
I eat it.
But yesterday
my granny
made me eat a fish.
And it was terrible. How can you
all give a patient a fish nobody
wants to eat? It was nasty.
A dolphin, when it comes out of the water, it’s so cute.
