The Making Of Me

By Jaqueta O., Dorchester, MA

   In the making of me...

There are hills, bees, mosquitoes.

Fireflies at night.



In the making of me...

There are collard greens.

They look like green leaves,

But they are not.

There are pigfeet. The pigfeet are nothing but a

bunch of fat

And a little bit of meat.

I don't like pigfeet.

And corn,

The corn is really good.

Put it in a pan with a little

bit of milk, and stir

That's cream-style.



In the making of me...

There is Tennessee.

Strong men and women,

As you can see.
