The Danger of Clicks in the Staffroom

Coloured thoughts
So many bad reports
Fighting my race
The group that forgot about the wonders of grace!
I trace their mistake in the face of jealousy
Hoping to help the new teachers entering the system and
Letting them know the danger of clicks in the staffroom 
While at the same time exposing the misrepresentation 
Of acting a certain way for a permanent post!

Teaching at a young age 
I saw how teachers try to put you in a cage
So many clicks try to give you permanency as a teacher
With the hope that you will be a part of their gang!
Not liking them means no permanency 
But this system is diabolical!
I reject my people’s attitude  
Sitting with my pen 
There are men and women from hell
Let me tell you a tale
The pale truth is that there are more
Gangs in the staffroom! 
Gangs create gossip
A crime of our time and this
Prevent teachers from reaching their prime!

Judging my race in the staffroom
Coloured thoughts
So many bad reports
I trace their mistake in the face of jealousy
Hoping to help the new teachers entering the system and
Letting them know the danger of clicks in the staffroom
