Edwin slept with a girl from
while on a church retreat.
He had a threesome in
the summer he visited his grandparents.
He impregnated a girl in
during a choir trip.
He resembled a pig
in nose and mouth
and coloring—
too pink in cheeks, too blonde in hair
so that his features blended together
into a mess of flesh
flowing into jelly rolls and donut rings.
Had we been on the set of a Molly Ringwald movie
life would have been different for Edwin
and he would have eventually gotten a girl
of some kind
but in Mr. Lowery’s English class
he had a better chance of tricking us into
believing him
than getting a date
and we todl him so everyday.
