"It was first grade
His name was Jacob.
He was the smelly kid
and he loved me.
He gave me a .25 cent ring.
He was my first grade boyfriend."
"We snuck away from our desks
We hid in the coat rack
Jacob had a tiny hole
in his pants.
He showed me something.
I was startled. "
"We shared our first kiss
On the fuzziest carpeted steps
I had ever sat on."
My mother, cousins, and I ca. 1989 |
