“Brown Girl Dreaming” by Jacqueline Woodson
“hope onstage” poem
Image transcription text
Until the curtain comes up and he’s standing there, ten years old and alone in the center of the P.S. 106 stage, no one knew my big brother could sing. He is dressed as a shepherd, his voice soft and low, more sure than any sound I’ve ever heard come out of him. My quiet big brother who only speaks when asked, has little to say to any of us, except when he’s talking about science or comic books, now has a voice that is circling the air, landing clear and sweet around us: “Tingalayo, come little donkey come. Tingalayo, come little donkey come. My donkey walks, my donkey talks my donkey eats with a knife and fork. Oh Tingalayo, come little donkey come.” Hope can sing . . . my sister says in wonder as my mother and the rest of the audience start to clap. Maybe, I am thinking, there is something hidden like this, in all of us. A small gift from the universe waiting to be discovered. My big brother raises his arms, calling his donkey home. He is smiling as he sings, the music getting louder behind him. “Tingalayo . ..” And in the darkened auditorium, the light is only on Hope and it’s hard to believe he has such a magic singing voice and even harder to believe his donkey is going to come running.

“daddy this time” poem
Image transcription text
Greenville is different this summer, Roman is well and out back, swinging hard. Somewhere between last summer and now, our daddy cemented the swing set down. Roman doesn’t know the shaky days—just this moment. his dark blue Keds pointing toward the sky. his laughter and screams, like wind through the screen door. Now my grandmother shushes him, Daddy resting in the bedroom, the covers pulled up to his chin, his thin body so much smaller than I remember it. Just n little tired, Daddy says to me, when I ?ptoe in with chicken soup, sit on the edge of the bed and try to get him to take small sips. He struggles into sitting, lets me feed him small mouthfuls but only a few are enough. Too tired to eat anymore. Then he closes his eyes. Dutside, Roman laughs again and the swing set whines with the weight of him. Maybe Ho he is there, pushing him into the air. Ctr maybe it’s Dell. The three of them would rather be outside. His room smells, my sister says.

“what everybody knows now” poem
Image transcription text
Even though the laws have changed my grandmother still takes us to the back of the bus when we go downtown in the rain. It’s easier, my grandmother says, than having white folks look at me like I’m dirt. But we aren’t dirt. We are people paying the same fare as other people. When I say this to my grandmother, she nods, says, Easier to stay where you belong. I look around and see the ones who walk straight to the back. See the ones who take a seat up front, daring anyone to make them move. And know this is who I want to be. Not scared like that. Brave like that. Still, my grandmother takes my hand downtown pulls me right past the restaurants that have to let us sit wherever we want now. No need in making trouble, she says. You all go back to New York City but I have to live here. We walk straight past Woolworth’s without even looking in the windows because the one time my grandmother went inside they made her wait and wait. Acted like I wasn’t even there. It’s hard not to see the moment- my grandmother in her Sunday clothes, a hat with a flower pinned to it neatly on her head, her patent-leather purse, perfectly clasped between her gloved hands-waiting quietly long past her turn.

English 30-2 assignment booklet Assembly Line Poem by Shu Ting In time’s assembly line Night presses against night. We come off the factory night-shift In line as we march towards home. Over our heads in a row The assembly line of stars Stretches across the sky. Beside us, little trees Stand numb in assembly lines. The stars must be exhausted After thousands of years Of journeys which never change. The little trees are all sick, Choked on smog and monotony, Stripped of their color and shape. It’s not hard to feel for them; We share the same tempo and rhythm. Yes, I’m numb to my own existence As if, like the trees and stars -perhaps just out of habit -perhaps just out of sorrow, I’m unable to show concern For my own manufactured fate. Paper Matches My aunts washed dishes while the uncles squirted each other on the lawn with garden hoses. Why are we in here, I said, and they are out there? That’s the way it is, said Aunt Hetty, the shrivelled-up one. I have the rages that small animals have, being small, being animal. Written on me was a message, “At Your Service,” like a book of paper matches. One by one we were taken out and struck. We come bearing supper, our heads on fire.’
