I had a favorite
A duck

Crumbs
Thrown her way
Even the finest bits
Collected from week...

lean over a fence and
throw apples at the boys skateboarding along the side walk

seemed upsetting
was sort of sad

Sidewalks and skate parks;
   Old swimming pools drained.
Kickflips and split lips;
    young ankles sprained.
Aerials and Varials
    and being called a punk.
Tail taps and  grip tape;

He loved skateboarding,
driving, parties, and friends.
He had a big heart with big dreams,
till late one night it all came to an end.

Walking home one night,
the lights hit him with great force,
rolling impact could bring.
In front...
