Stupidity

Farewell My Love My face was blank with no expression, as my fellow classmates cried their eyes out. Hugging and kissing went on simultaneously while others waved goodbye through the windows of the crowded, filthy bus.

Why are you so quiet? My plump fingers pinched the unruly grain of rice. I plopped the grain onto the top of the correct pile, and then I sifted through the other heaps of rice. The short hand on the clock slipped downward as the stench of Lysol wafted through the air. Adults frantically slathered disinfectants on the surfaces of the tables. The other kids were probably frolicking through the damp leaves, wiping their flu-infested snot onto the sleeves of their sweaters. Inside, I inspected…

If a person was asked to illustrate a physical representation of stupidity they may form the shape of an upside-down cone and write in it, “Dunce.” Success has often been correlated with knowledge, but, measuring how much knowledge someone possesses is tricky.
