lefty



fortress..I had one ...once
made it all by myself
for protection against
the black haired girl
that lived round the block
it did not work
I called her lefty
never missed
good thing 
it was only snow

    Funny after reunions, you realize how easily these things melt away. Your story is very much complete.

    You're right, those things eventually melt away but it certainly feels like an eternity until they do.

    Sounds like she was a bully. Glad it was only snow too and we don't need people like that in our lives, do we?
    Very nice read.
