SWINGING FOR THE FENCES

the playground is cause for many poor behavioral choices

mainly for the elementary school set

examples of bad behavior that needs to be immediately

corrected or addressed include pushing, shoving, hitting

but primarily bullying - seems that's the place bullys rule

the playground is used for recess to allow children

to burn off energy that builds up during classroom hours

and the massive amounts of sugar consumed at home

and at snack time and lunchtime at school

because of this, some children may have a tendency

to be more aggressive and thus causing problems

playground rules need to be enforced to help prevent

issues stemming from poor decision making

as we know, playground supervisors are there...

but not really there, only if someone is being beaten bloody

will they look up from their smart phones

as everybody remembers and hasn't pussed up by

simply becoming a parent, the playground is brutal

today's playgrounds in our schools are the equivalent

of the exercise yard in a federal penitentiary

there's the jocks and the nerds and the hard-asses

and the tattletales and the whiners and the beaten

the only difference is that most the kids haven't been

making weapons out of soap and toothbrushes

but the mentality is the same - it's every man for himself

 
it's a miracle any of us made it outta grade school alive
