POETRY

Student Esteem

listen to me please

cause I want to scream

let me want to dream

confidence I need

can I find esteem

I want to succeed

pressures of a teen

means Ignore my deeds

don’t follow my leads

can i find esteem

monitor near me

mama don’t trust me

teachers blab at me

my love don’t love me

can i find esteem

listen to me please

- Venetta Toca Rowles

THE SAGGER

The Sagger. 1996, watercolor, Los Angeles, California.

This image of a young boy with his pants sagging was inspired by one of my fourth grade students. He was adorable, but—imitating older neighborhood boys—had trouble following the school’s dress code.
