Quick, short poem--I'd like to hear your opinion since I'm reading for an audience. |
| Open your eyes— A math test sitting unfinished. Tanned arms and bare legs— Sprawling under desktops. Sky flowing in the window Like a pool of water. School is hot— Freedom is a breath of air. Fidgeting in class, Basking in the future— Summer upon us, Black glasses and white sand And an ice-cream sky Beckoning from the window. Close your eyes— Angry, indignant, trapped. Black lines on white paper— Quadratic equations. Summer’s hand caressing your face— Unofficial summer— A month and a breath away. |
