Week 5, Junkyard Entries

*All of my junkyard quotes are things that I found not only interesting but

useful for my own writing.  

1. "Plain chipware on a plain and creaking wood"

-The Bean Eaters by Gwendolyn Brooks 

*This discusses something plain, but it is not plain at all. 

2. "is full of beads and receipts and dolls and cloths,
    tobacco crumbs, vases and fringes."

-The Bean Eaters by G. Brooks 

*These lines are such a common place list done in an interesting way.

3. "Abortions will not let you forget."

-The Mother by G. Brooks

*This is so useful because of her tone here about such a huge issue, and I like

how she has abortions as a character of action. 

4. "It is just that you never giggled or planned or cried."

-The Mother by G. Brooks

*What an interesting way to look at life.
