Aspects of the Povel


"Her smile resembles a sneer. I couldn't take it anymore so I shat my pants. The summer of Japanese beetles. Our pyromaniac cousin who I thought was hot burnt an ant with a magnifying glass. 'He's gonna take over your uncle's company someday,' my dad says. Feeling jealousy when my aunt showed me his prom pictures. If only they were there when I caught the sunfish. A man helped me unhook it and released it back into the pond. Its torn palate and perforated hoses on people's lawns.


A paragraph of Povel by Geraldine Kim picked at random.
