School Should Make School Easy
I was a highwayman, a mercenary,
For my own moral fibre and future happiness,
But they interfaced me with religion and tradition,
Which offset my deep contentedness.
They had a different crux from me,
Which upset my balance and control,
Made me think that I was lost,
In a world with no death toll.
Pluralistic teachers and carers,
Make for broad minded, accepting kids,
Not dismissive scaremonger’s,
Of those with people values and bids.
God may be a concept in our society,
But he’s a people conjecture benign;
Your projection makes a difference,
Gives the outcast and deacon the sign.
School should not be certified,
By religion’s insipid breath and touch,
But should be monitored for the exclusion,
Of minorities with no god as such.
