Notes About The Poem

This is fiction and doesn't represent work.... lol

A Weekly Staff Meeting

The dreaded weekly full staff meeting,
Every Thursday, straight after school.
Where each teacher sits through mind numbing talk,
That’s neither fun, intriguing nor cool.

The new teachers sit, pen in hand,
Hanging on every word.
Whilst the other teachers sit, falling asleep,
With their eyes becoming a little bit blurred.

Power points, microphones, projectors and pens,
Graphs, stats, and annual trends.
Let’s not pretend these are interesting ways,
To develop strategies among teaching friends.

These weekly full meetings where everything’s said,
And nothing ever seems to sink in.
It’s my relaxing mental therapy session,
Where all my mental junk goes to the bin.
