What time is it.... what is it - time?
When is class over.... when the bell tells
Can I go to the toilet......maybe Tomorrow
Sir I'm finished.....fantastic, then do nothing
I have no book...good you dont need one, I am the teacher
Can I have a ruler..... a straight edge
Can I have a loan of a calculator.....to compute that which your brain can do
Sir, How much is left.....in life? in my career? i am not sure i think 24 years
Years of questions to some or other extent
Quizzically inquisitive of the mundane
Pent up anxiety of youth refuses to yield
A short breath or mis-step
Crowds of callow for the fodder of education
A field of thistles, brambles, lush green and dock leaf gaze
Worshipping the sun with questioning of a single one
Will you still shine on?
