If I had no paper,

What would I do?

If we had no paper,

What could we do?

Sally said,"Draw in the ground."

I don't want to make Mother Earth angry.

So I sit and wait,

I can't tattoo her...

It just seems so wrong.

Sally says,"She can draw better than me."

So...

I no longer sit, but draw and draw.

I draw a magnifcent forest, including many animals,

Creatures alive in only myths.

When I am done,

Sally is standing there,with her mouth open going to catch flies.

I feel not not undignified ,but proud with my drawing in the ground.

Mama said, "Don't talk the talk,unless you can walk the walk."
