Oh teacher

I admire you

As you stand up in front of the class

With your authoritarian pose and look down on us 'lower beings' with such disgust that you make me sick too

And you feel you have the right, to call me names as I fumble to piece together my notes to give you an answer

no

I will not stand for this

I escape from the classroom trauma that you felt fit to bestow upon me and here I am

Face to face with the principal

It was her doing

It was the stupid names and the embarrassment that I had to go through that made me snap

And as I sit here

Silently

As I listen to the roaring abominable words coming out of their mouths

about suspension

"Oh, please. If you'd even listen to me for one moment you'd realize!"

But I sit

I take it

I know this won't be the last time

But who cares anymore

 

Oh teacher

How I am astonished by how powerful you think you are

You stand over this class room like you rule 

With the pompousness fitting for a King and expect me to take you seriously when 

your kingdom is a classroom

your castle is a desk and

your subjects are the 26 students that drag their half asleep bodies in here everyday to hear you ramble

and you expect full and undying attention from us

as if that could ever be.

You call on me again with a question that I cannot answer briskly enough to satisfy you

And the game begins

"What is the answer?!"

"I'm sorry, I don't know"

I did. I just didn't want to scramble to please you.

Yes master, just a bit of bread, please master. 

Oh? No bread for me? Well if it pleases the master.

I didn't want to grovel

I wanted to keep my dignity

This was reason enough to send me back to those four walls that I was beginning to know so well

What is the point of this mindless routine?

The brainless walk from office to office

Asked the same old questions

"What's wrong with you??"

I don't fucking know. Piss off. Leave me alone! Let me be in peace!

This is unacceptable Eve.

You need to step up Eve.

Yes

well you need to stop making me hate school teacher.

I am not opposed to learning teacher

I am opposed to your attitude teacher!

*At The crack of a whip*

Oh right... I forgot.

You don't have an attitude 

I do. 

 

Oh teacher

I admire you

As you stand up in front of the class

With your authoritarian pose and look down on us 'lower beings' with such mercy that makes me feel that I am somewhat worthy of your attention
