We were coloring a picture
to celebrate Veteran’s Day,
and I was using “cornflower blue”
to make fireworks in the sky.
Missy Johnson looked
at my paper, and began copying
my idea. When she grabbed
her crayon, she pressed down
too hard, and it broke. She put
her head down on her desk
and cried. I couldn’t help it.
I laughed, just a little.
Does that make me a bad person?
