Which quotation from Brown Girl Dreaming most clearly supports the statement Woodson has a lively imagination?

...His feet are magic / and we all try to slide across the floor like he does, / our own feet, again and again, / betraying us.

...When I read, the words twist / twirl across the page. / When they settle, it is too late. / The class has already moved on.

Who was with you? / Nobody. / But you're not allowed to go to the park without anyone. / I just did.

It's hard to understand / the way my brain works... / How each new story / I'm told becomes a thing / that happens, / in some other way / to me...!
