The huntsman’s horn in The School Boy is non- native. But he likes the poem, hears a snake- charmer’s pipe vicariously, empathizes with Blake’s boy’s love of innate freedom, and then doodles in boredom. Next period, he slips down from the top of Pythagorean theorem. He snoozes in the Neolithic Age at noon. His brain balks at learning. Teachers avoid pain with peace of passivity. Porn virus infects his inner system. Parents are too busy to install anti-virus. He draws obscene pictures with a charcoal, as if raping the urinal wall. He rises up in the hashish fumes and floats in the space. Holes in the thought-layer is invisible to him. He runs wild, celebrating impulses. An unrefined man is a malignant growth from the negligence. First appeared in The Literary Hatchet.
