School
If you want to darkness dump,
To in life take a long jump;
If you need a sounder base,
A crossing into new phase…
For who wants to rule his thought,
Not relying on ideas bought;
For emerging a true champ,
Where you happen to now camp…
To know how to drink with straw,
Fingernail clip when it’s claw!
For leverage to the fore,
Behind leaving days of yore…
You’d better you went to school,
For therein awaits The Tool;
When one is no longer young,
Earning money like The Strong…
In higher ones find a course.
Don’t try stampedes of a horse;
You will have broken a rule
And might not escape Half Fool…
God knows I’m the First Witness,
Now, a fast–selling–business
Ingratiating the teacher,
Who sometimes sounds like preacher…
