EXAM

Heads bent, concentration,

Papers rustling,

Sudden pop-pssst of a Coke can,

Deep sigh,

Clink of bracelets, shuffle of shoes,

Tap, tap of calculators,

Faint breeze through the window,

Bird song,

Feet pacing, eyes roving,

Waft of coffee through the open door,

Stifled sneeze.

“”Just five minutes left”

- frantic scribbling.
