The Exam -May 05,2012

The urge  is to die and not withstandbeing 
killed
The conspiracy is to demise our 
knowledge
But I will not let it swallow me and 
I watch as the hands on the clock
Form a repeating angle and I stare

The reason is to try until ad nauseaum
I cant take it anymore!
No longer will I accept an onslaught on 
cerebro
I'll get up. Go and never stop to care
Or listen who explains or who got it right

I rise to leave and as if by force
Am subjected to sit and continue a cruelty 
To myself. I saw the year; wasted listening 
to what I call stupidity.I shall sit and 
watch
time run off the clock then leave this 
dreaded room and pray for the marker.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
