school boys hang in their groups across the field,
as one throws an orange and the other side uses his bag as a shield,
an apple is thrown and misses only hitting the tree,
throwing more fruit across and laughing when one is hit in the knee,
picking up sticks to peg causing one side to duck,
they run out of ammunition hearing a reversing truck,
a pallet of bricks delivered and lowered to the ground,
they all stare motionless not even looking around,
the most insane of the group takes a brick,
after dropping a small useless stick,
pushing the brick through the air,
not wondering where it lands or to care,
it hits and bursts into sharp pieces that fly,
parts hit the other group luckily not hitting in the eye,
they take the pieces and throw back hard,
as one gets his leg cut mildly with a shard,
another brick goes flying overhead,
as the people around remain still with dread,
hitting and exploding it breaks scattering parts,
then one group runs in when the swearing starts,
hand to hand with combat skills taken from tv with a pg rating,
hitting and pushing with a battle of rivalry hating,
leaders of the groups fight over minor things,
as the cut on the leg turns red and stings,
eventually the bell rings and they all stop,
fists held up now begin to drop,
they continue on with their day,
waiting for tomorrow to continue the same way.
