Eyes On
Eyes on the board
from the front row
as the teacher asks me
to read the first line
but I can't make out the words
mortified because
I'm a very good reader
Same with the eye doctor
on the first line
the BIG ONE
It was a bitch to get
glasses at 8
the name calling
from brothers and friends
like glass in my eyes
I was the first to go
now they all have glasses too
I could
but don't call names
because I remember how
it felt
(glad to be back- for way too long the graphics on the Pen looked like mud on my machine. If I suddenly disappear you'll know the gremlins are blinding me again.)
