Fragmented lines list names such as Sister Francis, Wency, Margaret Janak, Helen, Frances Elaine, Pete Janak, Dan, Irene Klos, Otto Strauss, Valentine, Dennis, Frances Smid, Victor Novak, Julius, Eileen, Margaret Mares. The piece appears as a playful prompt about school behavior and characteristics without outlines or routines.
