Reflective Poem

The Dread

Apprehensive demeanor

Silence in the rooms

The clock struck two

Information we've heard

Is a mentally broken earworm

2000 words fly in and out

Unclear instructions

Parades for the death of creativity

Unnecessary student teacher drama

Literature from two centuries ago

Refuse to speak of the present

Heavy, sluggish eyes

Nothing of value

Memory wasted away

Skin dehydrated and pale

Eyes rolling backwards

Looking for stimulation

Monotonous places to go

Fatigue in the rear view mirror

A chorus of yawns

As they speak non-stop.

It's time.
