Gym Class
In the corner stands the awkward kid
who never changes out of his jeans
and it is his solitary mission to stay out of the way.
Lying down on the hardwood floor is the out of shape kid
acting like he is dying
after running for five seconds
and dripping in sweat.
Off to the side are the girls who think they are in a fashion show
with their hair down
and fully coordinated gym clothes.
In the middle of the gym are the over confident guys
who are always way too into the game
making it torture for everyone else.
Standing with the over confident guys are the girls
who pretend they know what they are doing
just to impress the boys.
And in charge of the class is the gym teacher,
tall,fit, and friendly,
trying his best to control the class.
