The University

Bodies pass below me in a never ending stream
it feels as though they are an angry river
all pushing towards their classes
and here i am, just a lonely student
perched above their wildness
on my cement cliff.

I wanted to study English in this hot winter sun
i study only people as my time flows bye.

I study how they walk and how they talk
some walk fast and talk just like they kill
some ramble on listlessly and carelessly
as if they had nothing else to do.

I study many people as the waves rush bye.

Soon they leave me alone on my perch
and i am left to wonder
at the foolishness of it all.
