Ok, here's the poem I was telling y'all about. I had given Andy a short writing assignment and I was bored while waiting for him to finish it, so I wrote this. It was written about two weeks ago.

We sit at a table made of glass
Not far from where the Catholics hold their Mass

Andy sits across from me holding his drink
While teh waitresses listen to our English and blink

While Chinese pop blares through the air
And all the girls carry unbrellas, wanting to stay fair

My drink is lemon juice and though 有一點貴 (it's a little expensive)
I think it's worth it, for in the A/C we can stay

Hey! Some students from 小金門 just walked past
When I was their teacher we had a blast

In two short weeks I will leave this play
And return to living at a more normal pace

I will sit in class and 發 lots of 呆 (zone out)
But (hopefully soon!) 我一定要回來! (I will certainly be back!)

Ok, if I have time I'm going to try and do this thing that Anna wants me to. But my time at the cafe here is almost up.
