Friday, Fourth Block
Speaking in a voice,
No one wants to hear
Spreading a message,
No one wants to receive
An analog signal
Sent to a digital receiver
Just a place to be,
Until the buses arrive.

Oh. I feel this poem in my bones. For me, it's 6th period. Beautifully put: it is "just a place to be."
These are really fantastic, Art.
Thanks, Whit. I am finding it makes me more mindful when writing a poem a day. Or at least averaging one a day. =0)
