is the study of
patterned and recurring behaviour
is it though?
I have my feelings, I think
in tubs under the stairs
notebooks from Third and Fourth Years
the more doodles in the margins
the better I did in those classes
a portrait of C. Wright Mills
not his head and shoulders but his
accoutrements: thick black glasses
a motorcycle jacket
a memory from First Year:
Diane Wakoski’s “Uneasy Rider”
a break-up poem from our Norton
(on paper thin enough to roll joints with)
Mills is as relevant as ever
his analysis of privilege and the structures
of power -- Wakoski too, though who
among us is in it for the long ride
