Registration Rumpus

Meet in room 16

Quarter to nine we meet

Gossiping, brushing hair

Laughing loudly, no one cares

Flying schoolbag

Seems to be no-one's

Lands like a waiting bomb

Yet no one bats an eyelid

Form tutor goes

We're left unsupervised

Uncontrollable chaos

Head of French materialises,

Ready to charge.

Where'd she come from?

We all sit silently,

Devils in Angel form

lol isnt that just what all our schools are like? well very much so anyway, maybe not the flying schoolbag as much, more like a flying footbal or some of the teachers possessions! lol
