Ryan Federkiel Poet Free verse

Ignorant Bliss

Back in the day
There was many a name
For all the groups in school
We’d label ‘em all

The bros
Bro hoes
Asians
And nerds

Some were outcasts
Some were punks
Some were skaters
And some were lunks

No matter the person
Each had a name
It was quite the simple game
All in good fun

The divisive nature 
Of this attitude
Caused much hatred
And was quite immature

In the grand scheme
It was just high school
We could all act a fool
Innocence was bliss
