Was it just himhe didnt think so
Tiny Tim
he looked like he could have been
related to Ozs Wicked Witch of the WestEXCEPT
his skin wasnt green OR WAS IT makeup
is a staple of the Stage
it was queer to learnnever read any of the Baum books that
the Wicked Witch ruled Winkie Country why a country named Winkie
just asking to be invaded by hordes or Vikings or something Teutonic they preferred the color
yellow Winkies he
knew preferred pink – painted their freaking house pinkFollow
the Yellow Brick road he wondered if
Winkies were road builders labourers
he had to be careful when going down
roads
always figured he knew the way
back but didntgot lost more times than he could remember no real sense of direction no onboard compass OR maybe he wanted to encompass everything
Are you lost, little boy?
I am
his youth was filled with the
kindness of strangers the neighbourhood police knew him by
name he became a something of a nexus
for police in adjacent neighbourhoods
after the first halfdozen times
his parent and grandmotherthey lived with her quit fretting
though usually when coming through the door hed be punishedspanked his grandmother
was busy at her rosary praying in Polish he was afraid to ask her what she was praying forhe imagined two alternatives
he was malleable he could have been raised by gypsies who his
parents threatened his younger siblings with if they acted badly
I’ll put you out on the
doorstep and let the gypsies take you.
Sounded exciting to him
Yah easily Tiny Tim might have shared blood with the Wicked Witch
