Education
April 10, 2013
I want to talk about school
That which educates
Those who learn their way
For those who learn different
No matter intelligence
You are deemed stupid
Like fish expected to climb,
Rabbits to swim,
Elephants to fly,
We fail
Through no fault of our own
I am a fish
Expected to climb
When all I want is to swim
But that doesn't matter
If I can’t climb trees
