The rows
prove to reveal
only bored, tiresome faces,
held in hands.
Some crack momentarily,
revealing flashes
of lightening smiles,
only to be washed back
to blankness.
The Pupils looking,
but the Pupils not seeing.

I wrote this poem about school. I hope people are able to connect with it even though it is pretty pessimistic.
