echoing through the empty halls,

laughter,
     thudding,
          music blaring...

I try to shut it out,
concentrate on my thoughts,

but...
     I...
          can't...
               focus...

a slight breeze ruffles papers,
     someone sighing in the next room,
          twin fans four floors down...

others wouldn't notice,
     but my ears hear,
          and my pen...

...dulls...

I really can't focus if I can hear any noise at all, even something as soft as someone breathing... It drives me nucking futs!

Somehow this poem is esthetically pleasing. It went down cool, smooth and refreshing.

and I'm the exact opposite. I almost NEED other noises around me to be able to write or to work. Not to the point of distraction though. Which is a fine line to walk, as I'm easily distracted.


This is really good.

Spelling is all right, but, like chastity, you can carry it too far.
