When I was real youngmy hair a short, blonde mess of pearlsmy grandpa was the best at catching frogs. It was one of the only things that made him smile, crouchin' in the mud with his truckers hat over his bald spot and snatchin’ frogs from thin air and givin' them to me. Usually I'd hold them for awhile in my hands, peering close with my blue eyes until they hopped to the ground and disappeared. I kept one once, threw it in a red cardboard box, intending take it home to my parents and demand they let me keep it. |
