Katrina J. Loulousis - Genius

Cluttered desk, papers abound
Books, books, books, open year-round
Eraserless pencils with broken tips
A box of Kleenex for postnasal drips
A puddle of Wite-Out left to dry
Enough notebooks for a lifetime supply
Calculator buttons that always click
A literary masterpiece called Moby Dick
Sketches and drawings, sloppy or neat
Overflowing trashcan at his feet
A burnt-out light bulb in a dusty lamp
An application for writer's camp
A dictionary, a thesaurus or two
These are the signs of a high I.Q.
A cluttered desk proves a curious mind
Yes, these are the signs of a young Einstein.
