Even Though It’s Not

Math homework (roots and radicals).
History project (interview
A parent re an ancestor).

Film studies (write, shoot, and edit
A story about a murder,
Where the killer’s a rubber duck).

Life science (recapitulate
The life cycle of a slime mold
As evolved cooperation).

Art classroom (ultra-realist
Drawing of a still-life in chalk,
As ultra as you can manage).

Language arts (interpret a poem
Written as an allegory).
