english 101
March 16, 2009
sitting in class.
feeling sick.
cough up a little blood, soldier,
you'll be alright.
alone in this computer chair
staring at the 80 written in red on my paper.
watching victims chatter among themselves.
glancing now and then at the Nazi teacher.
seeing the words come on this computer screen as my fingers work as I tell them to.
loosen up, little soldier, only twelve minutes left till lunch.
ADHD has its benefits.
