Kingsolver's Words

So I'm altering Barbara Kingsolver's book: The Poisonwood Bible, and on every page I've underlined some words to create poetry here's what I got so far.

Imagine
frogs
hauling
and
arching
the
doomed
sympathy
world


mother
sets
Silently
Always
helpless
woman


measure
smaller
years
stuffed
wild


believe
In
me
One has only a life of one's own.


I am
Africa
I was
Africa
I did
Africa
I know
Africa
I know
Africa


slide
this
shake
it
take
it
away


bearing
concern
She
understood
all


mother
lost
the
Father
She
loves
we
prepared
his
beloved


considering
possible
pockets
she
feels
free
