Little Nicholas Page #6

Like a pickled pepper.

She just stares into space

and gurgles.

Everyone says she's smiling,

but that's a joke.

All she does is gurgle.

I wanted a brother.

But at the hospital,

Mom took this instead.

I don't know why.

She has rolls of fat everywhere,

she looks like she has four cheeks.

I should've asked for a puppy.

It's funny,

but at that moment, I remembered

the teacher's writing assignment:

T ell me what you want to be

when you grow up.

Because now I know.

What I want to do when I grow up

is make people laugh.

Look here!

Look here!
