Glove-Like North (Parents Are Sad)

With what snow is the woods ballpoint? Stuck in the woods behind the house behind the map behind the snow: tables and more tables, men and more men, globes and more petty globes. One possession is the ox of dislike. Ocean’s health. Parents are sad because the girl wants the magazine which costs twenty-two dollars. And she is enamored of her misread of Paley’s story: the character brought three sleds to school (the memory and the actual writing is flags). But the girl will not relent, and even states this is an essence to the Immigrant Story. She chews gum like Grace Paley. One of the teachers is saying this as the teacher walks from the blue room which is the teacher’s room. It’s either a defense or a joke or a girdle. Architecture used to be one man standing above another.
