Graffiti walls and bubble-blowing.
Fingers drumming, disinterest showing.
Pencils scattered and papers flying.
Heads dropping, tired groaning.
Linear equations and square roots.
Spitballs flinging, far they shoot.
A draft from the window and excessive noise.
Blank stares, erasers as toys.
Fidgeting bodies and wandering eyes.
Geometry unspoken of, and so I sigh.
