Afternoon in School - The Last Lesson
When will the bell ring and end this weariness? How long have they tugged the leash and strained apart My pack of unruly hounds: I cannot start Them again on a quarry of knowledge thet hate to hunt, I can haul them and urge them no more. No more I can endure to bear the brunt Of the books that lie out on the desks: a full three score Of several insults of blotted pages and scrawl Of slovenly work that they have offered me. I am sick and tired more than any thrall Upon the woodstacks working wearidly. And shall I take The last dear fuel and heap it on my soul Till I rouse my will like a fire to consume Their dross of indiference, and burn the scroll Of their insults in punishment? - I will not! I will not waste myself to embers for them, Not all for them shall the fires of my life be hot, For myself a heap of ashes of weariness, till sleep Shall have raked the embers clear: I will keep Some of my strength for myself, for if I should sell It all for them, I should hate them - - I will sit and wait for the bell.
- David Herbert Lawrence
