Grow deep belly laughs.
Grow your grandmother’s clean conscience.
Grow that dream you had at 5 years old the first time a pencil calloused your kindergarten fingers;
You ran all the way home and screamed,
Look, mom! I’m a writer! My hand is changing shape to prove that I’m a writer!
Grow that in every crack of pavement the soles of your feet can find.
Grow your grandmother’s clean conscience.
Grow that dream you had at 5 years old the first time a pencil calloused your kindergarten fingers;
You ran all the way home and screamed,
Look, mom! I’m a writer! My hand is changing shape to prove that I’m a writer!
Grow that in every crack of pavement the soles of your feet can find.
