I know but I forget I know,
so I learn again
with a 2B pencil.
At first I draw
a stickleback, which mutates
to an amoeba,
no mouth or eye or fin to worry me.
Supper ready?
Mum’s boiling Uncle Ben in a bag.
Sweet and sour for tea.
I empty my pockets:
find some string, an old key,
a rubber.
I try again:
a mouth, an eye, a fin.
It swims.
Homework done.
I watch X-men on T.V.
until its time to dream. |
