Excerpt: ?
My teacher, Mr. Peters, stops mid-sentence, steps sideways
to lean over the monitor on his desk. His mouth drops open.
He looks like a fish gulping air.
The room stays silent
until he finally speaks
to say something about planes
hitting New York and us.
"The Pentagon is on fire," he says.
