Poems
Nov 2012
I WON’T BE IN TODAY (a poem about absence)
I used to tell
My students
“the best way to call in sick”
is to mention the word
Diarrhea
“no one
will ask you,” I told them
“what color, what size,
what pain”
it’s not like a headache
I need to call
In today
But how can I tell them
it’s for a poem.
