Calisthenic 1, Week 7

 This is what I came up with from the interrogation we did today in class.

 Elgin

 A village of retirees
A ghost town filled with
Houses of pukish yellow and tangerine orange.
E-town, is what the the Baileys on South Liberty Street call it, but for me
it's just Elgin.
The home of the graves for Chocolate and Winnie,
who were eaten by a slimy lizard that was lit up
like a Lite Brite.
Across the railroad there is Wasco's Corner Store
Where Lars sells gummy worms and fruit loops.
My 13th birthday filled with tangled slinkies.
