Because My Students Asked MeBy Taylor Mali
what I would want them to doat my funeral, I told them:
write & perform a collective poemin which each of you says a lineabout what I was like as a teacher,about how I made you reach for starsuntil you became them,about how much you lovedto pretendyou hated me.
You mean even after you dieYou’re going to make us do work?
