Awoken 50 minutes to school time Blaming poor, unfaulty water ready to wash me Tears stain on the smart skirt and shirt of grey and wine Buttoned up by sighing parents Now habitual of this complaining like buzzing of a bumblebee
At the ground, hands joined, told to wish for fortune and health While I strike a bargain with God for candy Only if he commands a quick school break Ten tiny digits wrapped around pencils with lead tips Caught in like a horse with blinkers, there's of leather ours of fear
Blank brains repeat lessons in unison. Irony! They teach freedom struggle inside four walls Rules to decipher poems in only teachers from Forget to balance conscious cause that chemical equation seems to demand it mor'!
Gods definitely not in mood for the candy bar The dispersal takes forever.
Yet all's forgotten on the way to home. All's comforted by a nap with family on soft foam.
