A card of a class

Teach the universe
Piece by piece
Rivers of paper and faces pour down
Into the desks

Each a puzzle each a mirror
Each a mystery
The mind is a furnace
Ash memory accumulating

On each card there are names
And in each classroom a group
The cities eyes and ears being processed
A card of a class where I've no excuse or fancy mask

Words and sentences tickle the senses
Rules and patterns and the exceptions on which they depend
Inserting it into their brains
A card of a class on each there are names
