she flails.
er,
fails.
in flailing, there’s failing?
(tongue that ten times)
when she was a little girl
her heart s(eyed) for
2/3 times, the wolf
didn’t eat the sheep
because
2/3 times
he wasn’t there
y d(ear)
do u h(ear)
what u want
to hear?
listen
she was
a w
not a c
she slid down
the alphabet
like it was a slide
caught letters along the way
she relished how
o
had no end
when teacher said, “What are you going to be?”
she said “w”
“w?”
“I like the way it
starts up
and
ends up
Teacher said “no.”
little girl flails
card reports “c’s”
she takes a red crayon
scribbles
c wcwcwcwcwcw
teacher y do u write c
when <3 wants w
teacher s(eyes)
“Your daughter is failing.”
flailing? she awes
“No failing”
but
she liked way fl
tickled her lips
she wanted to flail
into letters
swim in alphabet soup where
o’s loop in her hair
little q’s curl between her toes
where lang
langu(age)
is hers
