The asylum subjects:
Anthropophobic,
Unbidden commentator,
Dumbfounded,
Attention crazed,
Stock-still starer,
Lost sheep wandering
Following orders, disorderly.
And mothers
Frowning
Dazed,
Scolding
Disengaged.
One childless teacher:
A linguist without words
on an alien planet
with aliens
who don't know jokes
or how flamingoes walk.
