Teacher



For Ms. Wallenstein
Who gave you a C in conduct:
Isis, Kevin, Ernest
Writing Plays in 6th grade;
Rewatching Forrest Gump
Until it became Cool Runnings.
Ms. Slater,
Your teacher,
Not the Worst, the wisest,
Doing her Wild Blood Dance
Around everyone
While you stood by the chalk
Board, with your magic
In hopes that everyone
Could talk about Model’s Inc.,
Until it became Bolder.
