121937-463

I am just another number.

 

121937-463

I am nothing more than

fingers flying over a keyboard

and a push of a button.

 

121937-463

I am another

mind body and soul

to train.

 

121937-463

I am the next lunch tray

to be loaded with

pizza and meatloaf.

 

121937-463

I am an A for ‘ABSENT’

T for ‘TARDY’

or P for ‘PRESENT’.

 

121937-463

I am a nameless number

In the school system of life.

I hate numbers too. In this world we have lost our mind. Everyone is different and we are treated the same in the school system and the government system. I like the old world. When people were consider life and needed attention. A strong poem. I like your point of view. A excellent poem.

Giving us numbers to be known as in the system rather than our names... Did they not do something very much like this during WWII? Hello, I'm #_______. Its just not right.

Really soft, but strong. It reminds me of the song, "Drift" by Emily Osment for the film, Cyberbully.

[Broken Hearted Faux]

Why are we even given a number at school? It's like they're trying to be cool and give us numbers like the government. Can we all just have names instead? What's with the numbers?

Back to the poem...I loved it. Had a good meaning to it. =) Wonderful write

Very well thought out poem and be it school or life we can often feel like that, some phycists/mathmaticians do even go as far as to say we are all just part of a mathmatical code!!!
