all that high school jazz
I put on Jhamal
Parker
Shearing Garner Brubeck
Roach Davis
Desmond and more
Geometry, US History,
American Lit took on
new meaning -
not that the teachers
ever knew
spread out across beige carpet
books papers pens pencils and
me
(there's a black and white
photo - "homework relief on
living room floor")
stereo speakers either side
insuring a smooth ride
alone
no grade for this
