we were in 5th grade, the little boy was younger.

just seen a scene from
an episode of "our gang"

[aka - little rascals]

had a little boy
standing in front of
the classroom &
he's singing a song

[& honestly, it's
very very strange]

but

this scene made me
think of another scene

one where this kid
named donny bayless
that i went to school with
stood up in front of our class &
proceeded to tell "nigger" jokes
as his project for the part of
our music class that covered
performin' in front of folks

donny bayless also once
broke into my house
& stole a decent sized chunk
of me & my dad's
baseball card collection

i still hate donny bayless.
