A tree cast from iron stands proud by the wall,
This tree does not bloom, nor lose leaves in the fall.
It does not give almonds, leaves, berries, or sticks,
This black metal tree that grows down by the bricks,
I'm not great at school-
Never have been
So when it came time to look at colleges we were never sure I'd make it in
And that was always okay with me
I already hated school even before I had to pay for it
If I were blind, I could feel it in their speech,the words that enter my mind as if it were dull.If I were deaf, and I could not hear their preach,I could feel it in the stares driving through my skull.

No room
Last resort
Loud bang
Pothole shakes the car
Cracked asphalt
Hot under the sun
Late again
Stop
Find a spot
Trudge to class
Through green forested path
