Last Day

A white-walled room
Lit by paned windows—
Artificial cloudiness
On a bright day.
The scattered empty seats—
Wordless tombstones
Of occupants past.

An emptying hall
Full of echoes.
The giggling ghosts
Paroled from purgatory—
A two-month stay of education.

You guessed it: It's summer vacation! Two months of no bosses, beer, and the beach. I figure I could do more with this but I have some drinking to do. Enjoy!
