Ms. Poole drew him aside as he stomped to the door,
Stooping to check on the kids on the floor.

"I can see you're upset," observed Ms. Poole
"Would you like to talk to our counselor at school?"

Not really sure WHAT he wanted to do
JP focused as hard as he could on one shoe.

Nothing seemed just as it should be today,
So JP shrugged his shoulders and muttered "OK."
