in 2006

i don’t criticize wars
i need html to make the submit box work again
the hallway has marks
where i slide on my knees, and i made a few dollars
selling ramen to poor kids

it’s a forty five minute drive to school, by the time
it’s my turn to go there are enough kids
to always car pool. we are all White
and the Black and the Mexican kids
are White too—that’s the best we can do

every day i pray
at the flagpole. i like how
praying, on the rough cement, ruins
the knees of my pants. i look
so serious—like im doing something serious

in 2006 there are literal friends
changing their top 8 to be 3
that I am not in
