Bullets And Student Power! Poem by sisirachandra vaduge

Bullets And Student Power!



Role of the teacher
Students of what so ever
To maintain over role of scholar
Is the education and it’s manpower

Torturing and abusing of their culture
To rule with whatever
Complaining father depict her desire
To control over, school mores rather

Humble teacher and school community shiver in despair
To whom we empower, so why education protect and maintain our culture
Life is more than unless bullets of their favor
School discipline may not poor but their discipline


Very power, Very power, Very power
