gregory first tried twisting the top of it, then pushing. next he tried pulling it apart from its body. with a smile he said, "it IS a pen!!" his glasses, strapped around his head, were bright blue just like the monkey bars. the two of us became sharks on a bridge. he asked about my notebook. he showed me his teeth.

It is a learning which encourages change, one which inspires growth and supports a person in thinking for himself and thereby becoming more genuinely himself.”

so i slink amid the gutters, trash-can bangers, and street chatter, through the clink of sidewalk clutter, but that clatter makes me gladder; so much gladder that i woof-and i arf, pant, huff, and growl. now i'll shout and raise the roof with one good maxi-canine howl.

i'm playing a video game on a set of steep stairs. it feels like a pyramid. the bathroom floor is wet from people showering. the other girls seem familiar but i don't know them. i have no idea what i'm doing with the game. i'm trying to give the controller away but no one wants it.

we're all along the edge of the room and he's in the middle. he reminds me of an elephant for some reason. he's dusting off and moving around the mantle piece that's in my room now. we're uncomfortable. i'm changing my clothes a lot.
