I walk in,

 

*Left foot, right foot*

*Left foot, right foot*

 

Feet don’t kill me now.
Fifty eyes follow,
waiting for my feet to fail

 

*Left foot, right foot*
*Left foot, right foot*

 

Forty eyes on me,
five mouths giggle.

 

*Left foot, right foot*
*Left foot, right foot*

 

The tipsy desk.

The unstable chair.

My legs wobble.
Stomach through the floor.
My shorts hit the cold chair.
My airway is clear.
Everything is normal,
except another new school.
