he was soft
everything he did
seemed poetic
and meaningful
even the way he yawned
he was simple
no fancy clothes
nothing like that
no
he would just glide
as a cloud
into math class
and let his mind
float in steam
because math
hurt his head
i would look at him
and he could be
considered just
a normal student
in my everyday
math class
i've never spoken to him
but i have a feeling
that his voice would be
so light
and airy
that when it left
his mouth,
it would rise
like gas
into the atmosphere.
