to the news of its own undoing
and the media, who gave us celebrity politics,
are capering and squealing with delight, absurdly,
I find myself in an over-heated classroom
invigilating History: British Society, GCSE , Foundation,
when, forty minutes in to this ninety minute paper,
a boy with dyed red hair breaks the silence;
and, shifting the bones of his whippet-like arse
in his regulation blue plastic seat,
throws one arm over his tousled curls,
whimpers like a puppy - and snores.
