grade school poem #1
elementary schools were called grade
when I was a kid; I've been trying to
retrieve one specific memory from each
level while courting sleep: kindergarten
isn't hard I can still see Phil Samp and
Jack Frey fighting on the big rug rolling
punching and what are they fighting
about? why, ME – which one do I love
the best? is this an accurate recollection?
yes but is the reason for the altercation
true? maybe but who can be sure about
perception at any time? soon I will tell
you about first grade I know you are on
tenterhooks with avid anticipation
