It never obeys barrettes or bands. Carlos hair is thick and straight. He doesnt need to comb it. Nennys hair is slippery——slides out of your hand. And Kiki, who is the youngest, has hair like fur.

Butterflies too are few and so are flowers and most things that are beautiful. Still, we take what we can get and make the best of it. Darius, who doesnt like school, who is sometimes stupid and mostly a fool, said something wise today, though most days he says nothing. Darius, who chases girls with firecrackers or a stick that touched a rat and thinks hes tough, today pointed up because the world was full of clouds, the kind like pillows. You all see that cloud, that fat one there? Darius said, See that? Where? That one next to the one
