“Mira, I wanna tell you something. I ain't got time to tell you what I should've when I had time, but I dig you a whole lot." "Deeg you?" she asked, puzzled. I explained to her what it meant and told her that I would write it to her in Spanish and say it like it was.”

“Drip of a drop,
Don't name it a tear,
It's hard to cry with tears,
harder without,
To smother a sob without a sound,
to bite your forefinger in helplessness,
and cry out
Hey! Where's the pill
I can take to cure this?
What's the doctor's name?
What operation can save me?”
