A rowdy class, the professor puts on music to bring attention, it is an Oi song and the built skinhead at the front of the class proudly chimes along with the lyrics. Everyone stares as the music stops and he continues until reaching the end of the song. Small chair-desks, we are sitting in the kind I hated so much in high school.

surfacing from my dreams with a small poem floating in my head..

popsicle peas
and green cheese,
i'm going to the beach
to get sand on my knees.

washing waves
tide turning green,
return to tell mom
the wonders i've seen.
