CLASSES I think of morning class and of my chair always waiting for me even when I didn't show up. I don't know why I didn't go except that the day was more beautiful. Some classes were better. In history every word stood out to me, black on white. My mind was elated by images and experiences. I think of it still more. Noons were darkened by the cool dimness of the den. I listened to the beat awhile and to a friend, but again I listened to the sounds of silence and found myself alone and crowded.
