In the Corner First day of school for all my life, I screamed “Fire, Fire” out the playhouse site. Teacher calmed down the class’ alarm. Stood me in a corner to do no harm. In the corner, in the corner, I often went, for talking or some other event. The Kindergarten room caught fire anyway. Burned to a ruin on Easter Sunday. 3/26/17 In the Corner Sponsored by: Anthony Slausen
