Do Nothing that is Possible

I am quiet like a person with the tape on.

But I am a person with the tape on.

I am stupid and vulger to the people around me.

When it's to time to speak up, I just quiet and let the people deal with the problem.

I stay quiet while they compromise something, which I cannot.

I cannot for the rest of my life.

Only them, not me.

When it's time to speak up, I did not get up nor say anything.

I just sit down and be quiet until the time runs out.

I die, of course.

I related this to some people in real life. It had some truths in their lives,but not accurracy. Without trying to speak up, I stayed quiet at the right timeat the public school. There was always a timethat people,the same exact people said what they must say and others stayed quietduring their talk. It happened a lot in small and large classes.It occurred the same feeling at anywhere else for someone,who do not experience school as their main goals in life.
