Newtons Law
-Nandita Das
Newton's Law
I was inattentive in Science class one day
When the teacher at random looked my way
I didn't look up, I wouldn't dare
There's no escaping that intense glare.
Asked me to explain to the class
Newton's Law of Gravity and mass
My mind was a blank, heartbeats louder
For an answer I started to flounder.
Paraphrase
 The poet was inattentive in the science class
one day when she was asked by her teacher
to explain Newtons Law of gravity & mass
 Poets mind was blank & her heart beats
louder. In order to answer the question she
started to answer in a clumsy way. Really
she doesnt knew the answer.
Glossary References
 Inattentive  lack of attention
 Random  without definite direction
 Intense  extreme
 Glare  fierce stare
 Flounder  clumsy
