First Day In School
My First day in school
was hell between walls
teacher shouted all over
telling me to smile
with dead pictures
children made noise
painted me with flu!
That kitchen-woman
throws porridge to us
and then we sit in rows
as small birds in sticks
prepared for roasting
Surely I do not know
reason we go to school
to hear things strange
I want to stay at home
and play with my pets
toys and dolls wait for me
lonely and angry they are
when I leave them idle
