Inside the Clasroom

What happens when a classroom is filled with anxiety

POETRY

Hands, stammering,

without,

a beat

pencil,

clicks and clacks

on repeat

Elbows wobbling that force

the desk!

to creak.

Eyes that

search, scout, and scour

are eyes that

search, scout, and scour

until they

search, scout, and scour

And Ideas lead to nowhere

like cars stuck in traffic

that honk,

move forward,

and stop once more.
