Here I sit Here I sit In a class I dont want to be. May be pointless to admit. What do they want me to see? Here I play On a field I call my own. If they let me, I would stay, But they wouldnt leave me alone. Here I write As I leave the world behind. I finally begin to find my light, But they wouldnt give me the time. Here I lay And wonder why I try To fit their perfect mold of clay As the morning draws nigh. Here I sit Again in a class I dont want to be, In the mold I will not fit. How can I get them to see? By Seth Jensen RECENT POEM OF THE DAY POSTS

Teach Me, Lord
