The Last Class
Sitting on this lonely chair
A wooden desk is all that greets me
Many others are sprawled around
Doing things of akin purpose
The teacher’s rattling off her head
Whilst my neighbors snoring off mine
The ticking of the clock is all my brain discerns
No daydreams save me this time
Though I can’t say the same
about my dear neighbor
The minutes are stretching on endlessly
The children are starting to murmmer and skwirm
Oh finally I’m slipping off into a dream
I hope it will last, till the end of this dreaded
Class
