Two blocks down from school
by the boarded up house on Catalina,
we rode banana boxes and garbage lids
down an icy face, grinning all the way.
One year we built a jump
that sent us flying uncontrollably
before landing in a pile of powder
at the bottom of the hill.
John broke his arm testing it out,
but we told his mom he'd slipped on ice
so she wouldn’t spoil the fun.
