ABOUT those 80s MOVIES
the brat pack
the cliques
& I can't remember how I felt about them then
BUT
how I FELT about the 80s
I thought REAGAN was
LIKE
the END of the WORLD
AND
I REMEMBER reading
in FIFTH ESTATE
about the crack
& the contras
I KNOW there were shiny happy people
in the MOVIES
AND on TV
BUT
CAROLYN FORCHE
was telling us about VISITING
PRISONS in EL SALVADOR
& I went to PVA
not my "zoned" school
