I met the wandering ant at the school where they called me Gandhi, and since I am not one to spur names, I can speak with honesty really. Mabel Esther Ferrer actually looks like an ant. Black ant, not red, dark and dull, smooth dark hair, small hooked nose, sunken cheek, prominent cheekbones, hidden lips, small dark eyes, slender legs like toothpicks, pointed and tense hands. There is not a single gram of fat in her body. If real ants could speak, they would probably do so with Mabel's voice .
