Valentine Day At School

In school, well
at least until the
middle of middle school,
we’d exchanged
Valentine's Day cards.

Even if you were like me
you were bound to come
home with a few cards.

Not that I was Quasimodo,

but I knew my place
in the pecking order,
as those who handed me
a card
'no doubt knew theirs'.
