Definition Essay: How My Hair And Rusted Brown
A glow of shimmering light had appeared displaying a much peaceful yet a long stream of light, that seemed to shine longer than it has ever before. I have begun to wonder why is my neighbors' skin and hair darker than mine? Why is my hair and skin much more lighter? Orange was often my hair color closely related to the color of a squash, which my grandmother would use to make her most delicious pies all the town people would always bring beautiful arrangements for her. While my neighbor's skin had the most beautiful tint of a rusted brown similar to the carnelian stone.

Laughter from children as I sat to hear words joyfully as a mockingbird to the turkey, ha, ha, you bobbed that wrong, let me show you how to carry out such goal correctly

    The Last Moai on Easter Island

    I was born today. My bones quarried at Rano Raraku near the northeast end of my homeland, Easter Island. My makers were small, with deep tawny skin that gleamed with moisture under the sun as they carved the gentle curves of my body. As I lay among the rock, an unmoving piece of stone that stretched across the land to the creatures that constructed me, I observed the thriving life around me. I was surrounded by trees, some whose unbranched bodies shot into the vibrant sky, their silky, lively leaves dancing in the warm wind that swept over me. Down at my laying level, grew a variety of small, round, leafy, thin, and sweet smelling plants, sprouting from the land like gifts sent from the fertile soil. From the moment at which I was carved from the earth, I was in awe of its beauty, which provided myself and the creatures around me with so much, taking nothing in return. My observations were interrupted as I felt my body lurch forward, and slide onto what I felt to be the dancing trees I had once perceived around me. Hundreds of the small creatures stood around me, noise exchanging between them moving quickly and frequently from their lips, disturbing the peaceful silence. We slowly moved forward, my body still shuddering over the slippery dead trees beneath me. I felt as if I could hear them whimpering. As we proceeded, I was overwhelmed by the exotic life that moved by me. Colors swirling through the air, growing from trees high and low, with branches sturdy and fragile, trunks thick and thin. Smells overwhelmed my buzzing senses; sweet, spicy, musky, sharp, eye watering. I watched the creatures as we passed these aromatic plants; rip brightly colored fruits from their branches—killing them without even a thought. We continued to march forward. The vibrant sky above me began to darken, and our pace slowed as we reached our seemingly final destination. Although I could not see through the darkness, I could still feel and hear. Something long…

    If a person hears endless amounts of birds singing outside, there is a good chance the culprit is a mockingbird. Mockingbirds are known to sing continuously throughout the year, and most people find their company pleasant. Even though mockingbirds are a territorial animal, they don’t want to harm anyone.

    As we sat only a couple of feet from one another, I gazed at his features. Although his features were hard to distinguish with the candlelight, the candlelight outlined the parts of his face that were easily seen. The contour of his jaw bone was highlighted with the candlelight. There was a shimmer in his eye. His skin beautifully glowed as though he had lived at the beach his whole life. His nose was not very distinctive but it was slender and pointy. The candle sent a dark, long shadow of his nose across his face making me giggle. His hair was shaggy and light…

    The Story of the Aged Mother

    I don’t remember now how we got on to the subject, but one day, Teacher said that the palms of the Blacks’ hands were much lighter than the rest of their bodies. This is because only a few centuries ago, they walked around with them like wild animals, so their palms weren’t exposed to the sun, which made the rest of their bodies darker. I thought of this when Father Christiano told us after catechism that we were absolutely hopeless, and that even the pygmies were better than us, and he went back to this thing about their hands being lighter, and said it was like that because they always went about with their hands folded together, praying in secret. I thought this was so funny, this thing of the Blacks’ hands being lighter, that you should just see me now. I do not let go of anyone, whoever they are, until they tell me why they think that the palms of the Blacks’ hands are lighter. Doña Dores, for instance, told me that God made Blacks’ hands lighter so they would not dirty the food they made for their masters, or anything else they were ordered to do that had to be kept clean.…
