i think i startled her.
because i nearly jumped at her
when she walked into
class today.
“what is that on your shirt!!?”
silence. perhaps a gasp.
speaking more slowly,
i try again.
“do you know? your shirt?
do you know what it says?“
she stares.
and giggles
nervously.
she has no idea.
i try one more time,
“my baseball team.”
i make the
universally understood swinging
baseball motion.
“daegu, samsung lions?
same-same…
minnesota twins.”
“ok, teacher.”
is her only response.
she graciously allowed me
a photograph
to document my
disbelief.
korea is truly amazing.
truly amazing
at copying.
i’m pretty sure you doesn’t know it.
but it’s rooting.
for my
home team.
stay in touch
