The Game in the exam room


somehow the examination system in school always irritates me for the sheer way they look at the young minds with dubiousness and judgmental attitude. that we suspect them prompts them to act in a certain way. my thoughts put across once again in a silly way!

The Game in the exam room

There he comes, the invigilator,
Look how he frowns like a frightful figure!
Mind full of anticipation, acting as if an agitator,
Walks in he, with immense vigor

Students watch him with apprehension
Trying to figure out if his perturbation
Transforms into normal respiration
So that they can indulge in confident conversation

The gong lets out a shrieking call
The invigilator scuttles here and there
As the students scribble on pages with pall
The game begins as invigilator continues his glare

A purring here and there a panting
Invigilator's roving eyes, with determination
Gazes at the students with his head tilting
Keeping up with the seriousness of the examination

Twisting and turning along with other tactic 
Cursing with jest, 'the pest' preventing
Students look for his rear to turn and be static
As the answer from back is relenting

The invigilator, like an eagle for prey peering
Reprimand for foul play presuming
Passing the answers are they daring 
With each of the poses they are assuming

Then comes an exchange offer
There goes on a passing game
Here a pencil and there a rubber
As if they are performing a mime

It’s a match between the odds
The students at one end
The invigilator with prayer to gods
On the other end to outwit without any relent

Thus goes on the game of examination
With lots of pressure and perspiration
Then bangs the final gong as in detonation
Pronouncing relief from the ordeal of deliberation
