Book 7 Page 26
Come here now
Come here!
Come here this instant!
I said, --- “come here!”
And in my minds eye ,
I could see smoke bellowed from my angry mother’s nostrils and ears.
If she thought I was coming one step in her direction, she must be joking.
I may have been the naughtiest kid on the block,
but I wasn’t stupid.
