The last name on roll call
He caught my eye from day one of school.
Ever since kindergarten, I was the last name on roll call.
Will Zayde.
He was last this time though.
I remember being surprised when someone said his name and I looked at him.
David Zimmerman.
A thrill ran down my neck and I tried to fight it away.
This was an all-boys school, I wouldn't survive if I was gay.
But David looked at me, and I gave him a shy little wave.
This was the beginning of something I didn't know I had.
