-- suite 1105 LAPTOP sits atop old cardboard box, in a trick i learned at lisa heft's house. keyboard, mouse, printer and all of the internet dangling... with my TEACHERS ever-present, wide awake and holding all beings, watching me here from photos, a mosaic of compassion tacked on my wall... over my breakfast BOWL now empty, save for the spoon glued to its bottom by oatmeal and dried fruit. it invites a stretch down the hall, back to the kitchen... as the big brick box of the SCHOOL booms with amplified administrative authority. it blankets the neighborhood but talks over the heads of the children screaming and laughing on the playground... and the clouds steaming ever-eastward, across the great LAKE, michigan which is big enough to be seen from space but is resting now in pieces, between tall buildings... on my desk. -- Michael Herman 300 West North Avenue #1105 Chicago IL 60610 312-280-7838 voice 312-280-7837 fax http://www.michaelherman.com ...an invitation. * * ========================================================== [email protected] ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of [email protected], Visit: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html
