Girls with skirts too short
As lockers slam shut
While nerds get pushed
Jocks laugh
Nobodies stare on.
A girl's books tumble
Another seizes the moment.
The chance to play ball
She runs to grab her book
As it hits the ground.
Gossip flies through the halls
A poorly aimed blade
The rise and fall of power
Perpetrators laugh
Victims stumble.
Welcome back to high school
You already did your time
But I am not so lucky
Four without parole
Then blessed freedom.
