I can see Sitting Bull

Que Hora Es?
time for land
use and imperialism
I can see Sitting Bull
over there --
shadow puppet mechanics --
[teacher]likescountrymusic[teacher]likespunkrock
are two independent clauses
(represented by a tape dispenser
and stapler)
that cannot be spliced by a comma
or stuck together
[teacher]likes...
"the car is always a comforting place for
me
unless i'm pissed" (says a student next to me)
there's nothin' wrong with that sentence, people! there's nothin'
wrong with Sitting Bull!
only a wimpy comma
