what are your memories about The Simpsons?

A st., gramps chillin' all afternoon with a friend, the dad

of my childhood friend. he had some sort of  

 what

   disease

affected bone structure, however

which stood him at something around four feet

with an unfortunate humpback appearance

he had smiling dark eyes.

I hesitated too often as a child

I grew taller than him eventually,

a kind man w/ whom I was too

shy to ask

grandpa on the porch,
chillin', smokin', chattin'

a single marble I sneaked

clacked as I rose from my crouch

caught in the act

grandpa smokin',
sayin' somethin'

wrapping
myself in the fuzzy 

comforter

in a cot w/ the AC

never having an answer

to his question
