Biology Class Comes Later

deckardcanineOne of the dreams we’re most likely to have
Involves going to school in the buff—
Or should I say already being at school?
Well, whichever, it’s ludicrous stuff.
You’d have to be more than a little asleep
Not to notice before you arrived.
That’s not just forgetful; that’s practically numb
And peripheral vision-deprived,
And surely some others would see you in time
And react in an audible way,
Unless they’re as drowsy as you must have been
When you left the house nude as a jay.
(It happens that I had this dream at age seven,
Wherein I stood up on a chair
To announce to the class what they surely could see:
That my body was totally bare.)
