Muriel
I remember when he took me to the fair. I put on ribbons and my prettiest
dress. He put cologne on his stomach and chin and wore new socks. He bought
me a hamburger, coke, a ride on the tilt-a-whirl, and a rag doll with
frilly underwear sewn into its body. I bought him pizza, a candy apple,
a teddy bear, a pogo, a few candies and a stuffed alligator. Together
we bought seats on the ferris wheel and when we got to the top it started
to rain so we drew ourselves into a tight ball so as to leave the minimum
combined surface area exposed.
