The Sounds of High School (WIP)

Just found this poem (or start of a poem) in my English notebook from last year while cleaning my room. Maybe if I post it it'll make me finish it (at another date). Constructive Criticism is appreciated.

The Sounds of High School

Murmers across the classroom
Screaming in the hall
Fingers pattering on a keyboard
Bat making contact with the ball
Actors rehearsing lines
Teachers pleading for attention
Flutist's beautiful chords
Idiots earning suspensions
Whispering test answers
Announcements overhead
Secondhand grows louder
Students sleeping as if dead
