Everyday Use
by Alice Walker (excerpt)

I have deliberately turned my back on the house. It is three rooms, just like the one that burned, except the roof is tin; they don't make shingle roofs any more. There are no real windows, just some holes cut in the sides, like the portholes in a ship, but not round and not square, with rawhide holding the shutters up on the outside. This house is in a pasture, too, like the other one. No doubt when Dee sees it she will want to tear it down. She wrote me once that no matter where we "choose" to live, she will manage to come see us. But she will never bring her friends.

Freeway 280
by Lorna Dee Cervantes

I scramble over the wire fence
that would have kept me out.
Once, I wanted out, wanted the rigid lanes
to take me to a place without sun,
without the smell of tomatoes burning
on swing shift in the greasy summer air.

Maybe it's here
en los campos extraños de esta ciudad
where I'll find it, that part of me
mown under
like a corpse
or a loose seed.

Explanation:

Dee is the object of desire, amazement, and tumult among her relatives, while as an individual she scans for individual significance and a more grounded feeling of self. Dee's judgmental nature has influenced Mama and Maggie, and want for Dee's endorsement runs somewhere down in them two—it even shows up in Mama's fantasies about a broadcast gathering. In any case, Dee does not make a big deal about a push to win the endorsement of Mama and Maggie. Unflappable, not effectively scared, and overflowing with certainty,  

in "Freeway 280" the storyteller abruptly lifts the tone and reports to the perusers the growing of the new grasses helping the perusers the flexibility to remember nature, and the soul of the uprooted network. The expressions "raised scar" and the "counterfeit windsounds" plainly pass on the writer's dissatisfaction with the turnpike. The old trees, similar to the elderly people ladies who come to assemble the foods grown from the ground greens developing on the ground, are the gatekeepers of the network soul.
