Label Me Dumb

Stand in front of the class 

12 pairs of eyes belonging to students so wise 

Label us all 

Timmy- the jock 

Pam is so wise 

Mark- the next leading doctor 

Then there's that kid 

the slowest one in the group, the one who may not make it in society 

but that student is not dumb, or slow 

the student is bullied by peers for not understanding 

so teacher please don't become the bully 

understand that this student is trying their hardest 

the world may be black and white 

but this student sees the world a different way

so label me not
