Potions Class

Fumes burning hairs

Yellow tipped fingers resting on thin elbows

Darkened room,

With an even darker gaze

Whimpers heard in response.

Bugs, guts, organs, and powder

Yellow, orange, blue, and green

Small words, blurred with boredom,

Anger as each point earned is gone.

Felix meeting Lady Luck,

As golden liquid simmers on blue flames,

Yellow pages with written text,

Warnings from worried friends,

Earning points lost long ago.

Horned-slugs small and round

Pleased eyes,

Vials filled,

Sighing as time passes,

Ticking of a clock not seen.

As the bell goes and

Cauldrons disappear,

Trio gathers as the dungeons fade
