Since I was five,
I used to pop out
the lenses of my sunglasses,
and walk around carrying books upside down
pretending I was reading.
I always wanted

ocular camouflage for the astute
eager to add a "professional" accessory
to my vintage, seven-year-old appearance.
So when I couldn't see
the chalkboard,
I called my mom immediately
drove to Pearl...
