'Where I come from- S.M.C!!' (Free verse) by Hostileintent I love Munchins College, my arse
The place is such a horrid little farce
The people here, spend all year
Killing individuality, with art
Yes! We all love academic schools
It's a pity- our labs have got no tools
Instead we have some really cool rooms
Like our chlorine filled, closed, indoor swimming pool
The average Joe Soap of a teacher
Is not too bad, at the bit of teaching
But what of those ones, those silly little ones
Who would'nt know a text book from their Beamer
For most of them, I have the utmost respect
For six years they have kept me in check
They used their brains, and bore all the pains
Associated with keeping us in step
Séa.Tá sport ana tábhachtach
Beidir go bhfuil sé an rud is tábhachtach
Ach nà chuireann siad béim, ar an sport go léir
Cad faoin forbairt soar, FAIC
I now understand the life of the deagóir
I see it's full of filthy dirty eagóir
But overall- Munchins has brought
Me to a fear from a naive deagóir
Up the ladder:
Jackanapes and smoke buttons
Down the ladder:
Scurvey

Yum, good an tite.
Not sure about the Gaelic expreessions it deprived me of knowing the ending. I would stick to the same formula as the end of a poem is of utmost importance to understand and call me a vacuous poppinjay but I never.
The rhythm upto that point is dandy 7
i agree, i was really liking it up intill the point that i couldnt read it any more, and while it still rhymed and sounded cool, i had no clue what you where saying....
just out of school,so i think i understand it well.like where you are going with it, esp about the 'killing individuality with art bit'.mother is irish,she translated.rhyme is good. 8

never thought of translating it sorry. here is the translation for the last two stanzas: Yes.Sport is extremely important Perhaps it's the most important But the don't put an emphasis,on sport as a whole What about free development, Nothing I now understand the life of the teenager I see it's full of filthy dirty injustice But overall- Saint Munchins College has brought Me to a man from a naive teenager **************************************** the sport refers to the fact that my school always prided itself on its sport,but the fact is that it is a rugby school.rugby only.other sport is shunned.so i say 'how can one develop freely' READ READ READ READ READ READ 224 view(s)
