Not a Carbon-Copy by Amanda J CobbSeated in matching, mass-produced desks,
the others absorbed
in their own temporary escapes,
yet I am strangely detached,
lecture passing beyond me,
barely touching.
No escape for me,
none needed:
I am a world apart from them
and have just realized, in this moment,
that I always have been. 10/14/2003 Author's Note: I don't know.
