Kingsville, Texas, 1955 A loaf of bread from the Piggly Wiggly A quart of milk because MawMaw forgot A Coke and a Mickey Mouse funnybook A water pistol and Eskimo Pies A pack of PawPaw’s brand of cigarettes So he can watch his Yankees this afternoon On the Sylvania with the rabbit ears In gloriously static-y black-and-white Plays called by Dizzy Dean and PeeWee Reese In our childhood world, forever at peace

A Summer Afternoon at 209 East Huisache Avenue
Kingsville, Texas, 1955 A loaf of bread from the Piggly Wiggly A quart of milk because MawMaw forgot A Coke and a Mickey Mouse funnybook A water pistol and Eskimo Pies A pack of PawPaw’s brand of cigarettes So he can watch his Yankees this afternoon On the Sylvania with the rabbit ears In gloriously static-y black-and-white Plays called by Dizzy Dean and PeeWee Reese In our childhood world, forever at peace
