The season commences.

Children's excuses.
Children detesting education unrelentingly.
Children... becoming invisible.

School supplies

Backpack inviting geometry.
Students unprepared.
A surgeon's instruments.
Brand, spanking...
new.

School schedule

Spare classes.
I require expansion.
My tiny vacation disgustingly inconvenient.
I require siesta.
Despise.
the sunrise.
Clock alarm enraging.
Bed clutcher... pitiful.
KILL ALARM.

New Teacher

Legs- hairy cyclopses
Arms - ancient sentinels
Eyes - terror factories
Glasses reflecting domination.
Stick poking crazily.
Poor blackboard.
