If he got the wrong ear pierced, if he touched a boy's hair, if he had fingernails, if he looked at his fingernails the wrong way, if he didn't smoke, or didn't smoke a certain way, if he threw funny, ran funny, caught funny, if he drew, if he sang, if he said a word differently, dressed differently, wore a watch on the wrong wrist. If he cried.”
