Question

“I am Death, and I have come to take you with me.” Thinking fast, Aunty Misery said, “All right, but before I go, I would like to pluck some pears from my beloved tree to remember how much pleasure it brought to me in this life. But I am a very old woman and cannot climb to the tallest branches where the best fruit is. Will you be so kind as to do it for me?” With a heavy sigh like wind through a tomb, Senor Death climbed the pear tree. Immediately he became stuck to it as if with glue. And no matter how much he cursed and threatened, Aunty Misery would not allow the tree to release Death. —“Aunty Misery,” Judith Ortiz Cofer
