The Gun In School

Utterly clueless
Sitting around
The hard concrete
Sun warming our backs
Chanting
Singing
Shouting abuse at various members of staff

"We want food"
"Let us go"
Etcetera

Finally, we are allowed to go
Back to lunch at last
Though the condor block
Forbidden

The news rings out

People chattering
Rumours spreading

Calling to everyone at once
However, once they all know the
Danger has passed
They settle back into their ignorant rhythm

Now I am happy
That they kept us behind

For whilst everyone is cheery
And nothing seems to have become
Of this gun in school
Time has gone numb
And we have escaped it's rule
