The Respect is Lacking
By: Kafyia A. Robinson
Dear fellow members of this generation,
Respect, respect, respect, everybody wants respect.
Today I fucked on a letter you wrote
to me a long time ago
What it means?
I dont know.
But you wrote about
Our garden.
Sick of the way my mind is because society told me how to be before I could find anything out for myself.
Sick of being called names and tired of all of the labels that "don't mean shit"...
We have all become savages; we just don't eat each other
Ask mr to explain that, Yes I will
Two young men robbing and elderly lady across the street,
Leaving her laying here like a corpse
Where is the wisdom now lost?
Is convenience really worth the cost?
Books replaced for screens and instant streaming;
Concertos and Symphonies for banging and screaming.
This word I hear that burns my ears
This word THOT meaning 'That Hoe Over There'.
The disrespect slandering the female race
also describes the male who's always up for a chase.
Behold Teacher!
I am the perfect teen!
I am exactly who you want me to be.
I never break the law and your homework is my hobby.
I prefer reading the dictionary to TV
Like a baby born without a mother
Shit just don’t make sense
So how the hell can you walk around without a split lick of common sense
You think have all together
The actor prances across the set, prepared for his part.
His character must prove his mettle, not in the ring,
but on the string.
As he lifts the wooded beast, his eyes betray
his inner lack
Dear Teachers That Suck,
You see me sit in silence
You see me (try to) ace your class
You see me waving to you in the halls
You see me suck up
You think I'm too nice to be angry
The homework papper cuts us dry,
sitting in your office to hear you cry.
guess nobody wore cloths today,
i did'nt join in,
they called me gay.
kids ask me "you got somthin to say?",
To gain one's respect, you must first show respect.
Whether you are a teacher or student, you mustn't select.
Age is not a limit but people tend to forget.
When you forget respect, you will live in regret.
That's not my problem
Said a cold voice
She said
It's an opportunity
Just pay
I replied
I can't, or I don't know how
I gotta go to work
Is there something?
Silence
You scribble concepts for all to see, Back to the classroom as you walk through the equation. The board is full of color but my mind is clean and untouched, empty of any knowledge you were supposed to convey. The value in this lecture is palpabl
I'm not just a number,
I sit here and wonder,
Does my teacher even know my full name?
I don't care about your personal problems.
I'm having high school problems with a teacher who thinks I'm a grade.
I sit here in my seat listening to your speal.Courtesy courses through my veins,a passive look plastered on my face.I hate this class I think in my head.I can’t even focus, not a chance.
When I was in eleventh grade,
I had an English teacher who
made me want to
be a teacher...
because she was so useless that
I didn’t learn nothing from her.
Well, I guess that’s not exactly
Do you really care about your students?
Does my opinion matter at all?
or am i just a silly little teenager?
only here taking up an hour of your day?
that doesnt matter
When the world is spinning
A bit too fast
And as much as you try
Your heart’s path comes last
And you remember the days
Of trying so hard to try
To follow those dreams
