old poem i found

Senior year filled with bliss

Senior year full of lists

life lessons we've all learned

no Qur'an to be burned

 

acceptance and tolerance is taught

things we ought not do

and things we ought to

 

skipping classes oh what fun

getting lots of essays

never done enough

We've all got pretty tough

after four years time

spent on

homework

friends

experiencing life

is defiantly sublime

 

getting ready for the future

yet we still cant see the whole **** picture

kind of nervous

kind of scared

at the end of the year

when we'll really see who really cared

to be true friends til the bitter end

through all our ups and all our downs

clean out the friend list

get ready for the plunge

 

each day is another last

memories we shall forget

names that used to have purpose

are now found meaningless

 

find a purpose

find a place

society dictates

this is our anthem

that although times are bad

working is all you have

 

each election getting meaner

every day a little harder

HOPE MY ***

this is all a clever lie

 

high school teaches us so much

yet none is remembered

none is obtained

vague concepts taught to the blind masses

When will the people learn?

 

To STAND UP

Stand up against corruption

and illegal government spending-WHOOPS

guess that was left outta the text books

 

Stay civil

stay sane

Follow the "American culture"

Eat fat

stay thin

this is hypocrisy we now live in

 

Vote for Republican

Vote for Democrat

doesn't matter in the end

they are the same

Abercrombie and Fitch

VS

Hollister

Same brand

different label

 

Don't you see?

Can't you see?

This hypocrisy....

is real

as real

as you

or Me

 

End of line
