Stagnant Classroom
Uploaded: May 28, 2008
...new ideas stop flowing,
mind stagnates,
and the only thing left-
a film of green algae.
Taken at a pond near my house; the water level has dropped causing a stream, once connected, to be cut off. Algae has since grown over the top of the pond. I happened to find this old student chair in it- probably submerged at one point.
