Let Jack Study

Stories, cartoons, 
comics I love most
English, maths and science 
are like ghosts
They haunt me all day
disturb my dreams, 
keep me awake
I want to play 
all the way
Let Jack study, 
he is the dull boy
Schools are like monsters, 
traps us inside
Only a history teacher, 
we all together like
Akbar to Shivaji, 
Rani Laxmibhai
They fought and played, 
never went to school
Want to be those heroes, 
Why make me run behind books.
