Because My Students Asked Me
what i would want them to do
at my funeral, i told them:
write & perform a collective poem
in which each of you says a line
about what i was like as a teacher,
about how i made you reach for stars
until you became them,
about how much you loved
to pretend
you hated me.
You mean even after you die
you're going to make us do work?
