tired of talking
tired of using a lot of
words to communicate
tired of teaching to
educate I rest my case
on a paper stack
like a paper weight
on top of a waiting list
it's gone take some time
to get to it the hour is now
to do it I say screw it
enough to split wood
into splinters unopen
letters return to sender
too tired to rest in
comfort too tired to
open my eyes to see
what's coming next
still cleaning up mess
from the last time
class was in session
