My hand

Shooting up into the air

My idea

Brilliant

My voice

Ready to be heard

Ready to

Speak

Ready to

Wow

Everyone with my

Genius

My teacher’s eyes

Scanning the classroom

Calling out names

Asking people for their

Answers

All of them saying

Basically

The same thing

My idea

So drastically

New

Fresh

Brilliant

My teacher’s eyes

Scanning the classroom

“Anyone else?”

Her eyes seemingly

Oblivious

To my

Plea

To my words

To my need to be heard

“No one?”

“Ok, let’s move on.”
