Black Dregs

Children break into the staff room to drink the black dregs of the teachers' coffee. This is repeated again and again; finally it can be calculated in advance. It becomes part of the curriculum: the futile stretching of the children's tongues, the attempts to reach, the exploration, the new worlds, the dark wonder.

-from the Franzlations project by Gary Barwin and Hugh Thomas
