And so goes the horde
Down valleys of sloppy school books

Staring upways and downways
At never-ending paths of
Superfluous information and opportunity

From and to the sound of
Heavy sighing heel-toes and
Meaningless beats of self-doubting hearts

Shriveled wooden stubs of
Creativity boiled down to the
Pure cold of steel and let downs
All course through the
Varicose veins of decrepit
Grammar and
Vapid nothingness

Slushy schoolgirls
Drip aimlessly from
Beer to bottled boyfriend
As the bell rings

For another 7 ½ of
Rising retardation and
Declining expectation

P.S.  This poem is from my second collection of poetry that I have completed and will attempt to get published...wish me luck in whatever form you believe to be right.  Many thanks and graciousnesses.
