I NEED HELP ASAP!!! ANYONE PLEASE HELPP!!
I played on till dusk
Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders
And calling out in desperation things like
"Yours" and "take it," but doing all right,
Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set.
"Hum baby" sweetly on my lips.
—"How I Learned English,"
Gregory Djanikian
