Self-Efficacy

2/4/16

Children are to be encouraged

But creativity is a costly thing

They say self-efficacy is important

But they do not like my way of speaking

Literal meaning is not a territory

I dare to toy with

Because instead I teach the words to dance for me

To music I have composed and only I can hear

I deal with the metaphors and similes

To weave a literary masterpiece

With that I know I am skilled

My stories breathe and my poems stab

My essays speak and my theses grab

My pen knows what it is doing

I know what I am doing

Do not tell me that my way is wrong

Just because it is different

I know my writing patterns can be odd

But do not ask me to change it

I will no give up the voice in my writing

You cannot force someone to kill

That which they've breathed life into

Adults make murderers of childrens minds

By squashing the creativity they were supposed to encourage

Every time I feel my voice growing quieter

The music has become harder to hear

And I strain to find my words 

Children are to -be encouraged 

...But they never are
