Sleeping
Through the work, yet
Awake for discussion.
His grades are failing, but not his
Genius

The short subtlness of this was "genuis."
It's true sometimes kids falling asleep during class, are bored by easy work.
Nicely done. Thansk for entering. -
blanket background though blanket coverage isn't alway comfortable
Hello lover of short poems, indeed I suppose also, because you entered twice & you'll need to author note that other title for the judge. I hope you don't mind the friendly reminder.
"Untapped Potential" is a curlyq on I.Q. in a cinquain. It's brevity is a ripped out page of many college students finding a pillow in the library but also an ear. It's the exploration student that can't find the feel safe in the little answer but is "awake for discussion" and the teacher may not see much teamed up. But much is shimmied in education even when " grades are failing" when a spurt of servitude is found in mechanics of interest that draw others through the social yes instead of theoretical shake of the head. But then there's bucks bucking how well that passed according to some, discipline or undiscipline in that matter is a backing. So, a simplicity might allow a slinky elsewhere!
I think you conducted yourself well in this form poetry, staying alert to bring the top and bottom lines into superimposing focus, though it's "Sleeping Genius," lol. And future strength can be seen anyway, but I think the guardian value of one's mind can be too recommended instead of just a brain paced so to speak but that isn't seen until out of the apparent drag.
It reminds me of telling on the protracted piece, bored with just the drillof expected categories, but it can be a trying like Tchaikovsky as a radio broadcast covered the expression of his work as being. But it kept falling naturally to a a level initially could've just gone to but not really because now that spot is dense. So turn a station or see a similarity or mileage!
Thanks for sharing for the strictest interest seen in another way.
8:44 another day on AP but those numbers or names are going to change,
