Biter's Alert, by Mark Tulin
24/5/2019

Monday, Shane’s first day at day-care. Put on Biter’s Alert after leaving teeth marks on little Cindy’s arm.

Tuesday, Shane refused to lay on his blanket during naptime and kept the other children awake.

Wednesday, Shane pooped in his pants and refused to get changed.

Thursday, Shane cursed his preschool teacher, then refused to share building blocks with Rosemary during playtime.

Friday, Shane bit two more kids, Ashley and Joseph. The owner had a private meeting with Shane’s father and thought it best to take Shane to another day-care center. She gave him two referrals and wished him good luck.

I am an author, poet, humorist, and short story writer living in Long Beach, California. I write about various topics, from my early childhood in Philadelphia to my years as a family therapist and finally to my soul-searching in California. These are poetic narratives that may have humorous or serious content or both. Either way, I hope my poetry and stories resonate with you. My books include Magical Yogis, Uncommon Love Stories, Awkward Grace, Junkyard Souls, and Rain on Cabrillo.
