SCHOOL DAYS

Magnificent teeth
don’t be ashamed

sweep the kidney beans
closer

piles now, all the kinds in piles

remember:

always someone will be your carrier

to carry you there
then back

the tree looks nice
so you may scramble through
the yard

where somehow everyone’s mom
looks like the first lady

and Isabelle Eberhardt drowned

she floated through the corridor
while all her ink
bled into water

the flood, her carrier

and you, your own

faint vision where
street lights bleed like
messy stars

the reds, the whites
expand
