Hi-Flyer Part 1

My entire world captured in a camera lens, Each second saved in imperishable moments, It's like each picture is Father Time's tribute to Mother Earth, And I'm merely a humble handmaiden bringing them closer together, I'm a photographer, an artist, sort of, Aiming to turn my life into a scrapbook, By preserving everything I love, It's not a hobby more of a personal passion but when I take pictures I still hope someone will look, Cause it takes a special kind of guts to put your life out on display, You're basically telling everyone, "hey guys look at these cool things I saw today!", And then you silently hope and pray that they'll like it so you can get an A, Now that I think about it the whole concept of "art school" is a terrible system, It's a HUGE paradox, they're all "you see these great artists, you should strive to be like them.", And then you get the ol, "everyone has their own unique style and all art is beautiful", So the next time I get an F can I use that as my angle?
