Rules on the First Day of Class

 

Woe be to those who step out of their place,

put on a new face,

disappear without a trace.

You may lose your cadre


of friends


who can’t fathom the new you,

the new dynamics of a new two,

shifting the paradigm, it’s true--

changing the dynamics of the family-


of-man  


who want you to stay in your seat,

never admit defeat.

Remember your role to meet

expectations of what you should do or be, goals


of society.


Now, turn to page one.
