next one's fifty miles away--
now i have to poop...

constantly talking
no one can hear instructions--
test day will be rough

2 senryu 4/23/13

frustration builds up--
pressure pounds inside my head--
soon, the explosion...

they never listen
hints given are plain ignored--
then they act surprised

before the alarm clock blares
I am already late

April showers
wind lashing the rain
vertic'ly
'neath awnings
soaking running students through
as they scream to class
