Just Making
Face After Face

Janet Kuypers
5/11/12

So this little boy
just kept making
Faces at me.
And I know
there’s a television
displaying
video surveillance
right behind my head,
and this little boy
is making faces
to appear on tee vee.
But after a while,
he’s just making
face after face
at me...
So when is this
grandmother
going to say
enough’s enough,
so this little boy
doesn’t have to be
my problem too?
