Let's make a list
so we can feel like we're accomplishing something,
so we can feel like we're working together.
Let's sit in a circle adding to the list
as we move around the room one by one,
as you make a suggestion begin sternly
- you take no shit -
to give credence to your semi-constructive argument.
Tomorrow we'll wonder where this generation
gets their priorities from.
Tomorrow my heart will skip a beat
as it does every morning nine months of the year.
It has to do with this list.
Before the bells even ring.
Before the hair is even combed.
Will the approach ever change
or will it begin as i've said
and end with a lighthearted twist
to prove we're all adults?
It has to do with this list,
which we'll put in our pockets
to throw away at a later date.
It has to do with this list,
Which makes me feel more uncomfortable
than i've ever felt,
More apple pie than i've ever been.
We are not housewives, executives, or entrepreneurs.
We are teachers by trade, complainers by role.
