mother dies, and the sisters
eagerly
clean house,
gnawing at the bones
of what's left behind.
i'm left with an old
report card from the sixth grade.
some A's some B's,
a C or two.
mrs. shifflet
writes on the back.
stephen
is very quiet. he doesn't
say much,
rarely does he raise
his hand
to participate in class.
he seems to be day dreaming
a lot.
but he's liked
just the same.
he makes
us laugh.
