it was a dress-down day today
no one warned me what happens to young men when,
(accustomed to wearing a coat and tie to school)
they are free to wear jeans on the last day,
of a an extremely long week
did i mention that i taught a double period?
80 minute class
did i mention that it's friday?
just yesterday i was saying how silly i found our dress code to be
and today i ate my words whole
looking forward to a monday with boys growing into men,
sedated by their jackets and ties.

don't you have monday off? yes, i love having a uniform and it gives me a visual and literal headache when the kids are dressed down, their wildness revs up!

apparently when the jewish holidays fall on weekdays and we miss school, they take back columbus day
