Philosophical Thoughts by Katz and Kelly

We sit quietly in philosophy class,
While our minds ponder why we are here.
On the screen, Buddha meditates.
His voice echoes.
Hmmmmmmmmmm....Hmmmmmmmmmmm....
Can the math class next door hear him sing?
What is the meaning of life?

We raise our hands
And ask Mr. Elder our questions.
He does not know.

We look at the clock.
And wait.....wait......still waiting.....for 2:25.
Because it is Friday.
Master Elder tells us to pay attention,
"Only 10 more minutes!"
But we know that is a lie
Because it is 15 minutes.
15 minutes to 2:25.
14 minutes.
