Nothing

Ok. I was bored in math class and wrote this. Nothing was coming to me so I  wrote  what was around me....
-kk-chan

Nothing
Nothing comes to me
Nothing, nothing at all
While I bear the drone
Of monotone chords and numbers
My back against a metal chair
Waiting on tenterhooks to hear my name called

I still hear nothing
Nothing of interest
My pencil cannot write
On this pallet of wonder, mystery, dreams that whisper and faint, unspoken hopes

I am called
I answer
I get problem 16 wrong
We proceed

A forgotten guitar pick swings 'round my neck
My heart stops
An adversary turns around
But
My pallet, pencil and I are undiscovered

Wait!
Something has come!
My pencil scribbles furiously
To write all this down
