don't know how I managed to get lost one moment I was marching along with my fellow
scouts and the next I was marching alone. When I realized what had happened I
responded like a true Boy Scout of America I sat down on a toadstool and sobbed. Oh I
knew I was going to die out there. I waited for the gnats that sew your lips shut the owls
that peck out your eyes the spiders that drop eggs on your tongue and the wolves that
drag your carcass to their dens. I knew that by the time they found me there would be
nothing left of me but my neckerchief slide. I imagined them taping it to a postcard and
mailing it home to my dad. When I ran out of tears I started singing Oh, they built the
ship Titanic to sail the ocean blue. And just then a flashlight found me. My patrol leader
asked what I was doing out here in the woods and I spit on my palms and said don?t
worry about me. I can take care of myself. That night I dreamed of dragons in the pines
and I woke up screaming.
