Pig on a Spit
About midnight the pig was fit, on the spit, and placed over the
charcoal pit. So that it, would not burn, a close watch was kept on, it.
At noon, the next day girls came some wearing sweaters, mostly knits,
and dresses with slits. They were escorted by boys who brought bats,
balls and mitts, to shag flies and take hits.
At two o'clock watermelons were split and seeds spit. Next the pig
was removed from the pit, then eaten for hours to the last bit, just as
the sun was about to, quit.
