The Fly on a Wall


What does it see

Endless bells ringing like its Christmas

Really just an ordinary llife of an ordinary student

But eac has a story

Everyone important in ther own way

Finding that special thing is the problem

Through those diamond eyes

It views the future

And it sits and questions why things are the way they are not

On those wings questions flutter

Why do they do those things that they do,

those ordinary kids

What the fly cannot see from the wall

Is what lies deep underneath

Pressure rising 

High amount of teachers with low skill 

Blaming students and asking why all they are doung is getting high 

Blamed on those ordinary kids

What the fly cannot see should not be what it judges 

On.
