A Year Down Yonder

Medium #14

If I could spend one whole day with one character out of this book I would choose, Mary-Alice because she is just a regular ole' country girl who is but kind of dingy, and very brainsmart but not too smart in some other ways... If I could spend a whole day with her we would go to Ft. Smith and go shopping at the mall, because I think that she would like to do that, and that she would have alot of fun.

Donald Zinkoff is a below average- a condition that most adults would like to pretend doesn't exist, and that so far many children think apply to just themselves. He's not disabled or indanger. But, clumsy, sloppy, and not very bright. Or as his classmates call him, " a Loser."

The Report Card

Medium project #18

"Report card"

In the solitude

of your concentration

you hunker down

over the schoolwork

that you fight

as I fought it.

Fragments of my childhood

brush my skin

as time flicks through

the book of you.

Forgotten paragraphs

of my own story

catch my eye.

Your problems

were once

and still are mine.

How I wish a better me

for you.

Not just now

but in the moment

when unthinking form

was passed to you.

But you make your own mistakes

and do much

that I should have done.

If only I had your shape

and time.

In those moments

when I catch you

skipping out of my shadow

my love for you

is beyond my understanding.

This is like the book the report card, because when she gets her report card she is necer happy about it. And she always knows exactly why her grades are so low.
