Backyard Dreams (55ve)


She placed the white sheet over the clothes line in the unkept backyard. Neighborhood children placed their quarters in the slot on top of the shoebox and took a seat. The young girl placed the veil over her face and pulled back the makeshift curtain. The act started, she played out her dreams and hopes.
