I drive past a sign every day that reads DRUG FREE SCHOOL ZONE And every day I think about how that sign Is dumb Because what drug user would stop Just because that sign told them to Drugs are illegal anyway isn’t Every zone supposed to be DRUG FREE What a stupid sign Every day I pull into your driveway And I look at that telephone pole that Everyone backs into and I think about How you are not dumb But how so many people treat you like you are Your brain works like a Beautiful ball of thought yarn that spins super cool knitted thought scarves and you never lost your child mind Please remember that they Are not better than you That your mind weighs no Less than anyone else’s That your nicotine fingers are just As worthy of a handshake Please know that you are good enough Know that you are not a stupid sign and DRUG FREE SCHOOL ZONE To be frank, Sounds like a really bad time.
