Corporal Punishment

Corporal Punishment

Bubbles'were not invented
during COVID..
I had my own ' bubble'
in 64 at school...
Five years old, and my mother
taught me to read and write..
And the crow that was my teacher -
Complete with glasses that could see
around corners ( the Witch)
ย un taught me...
She also taught me no point in asking
for anything..
Or telling the truth...
It's all a chicken run..
Might as well sit quietly and be ignored..
in the Big Wide World of School...
I went missing..
I went to the library down the street..
And got smacked by the head mistress..
But I asked..
I asked if I could go to the fucking library..
And they said yes .
I didn't know they had a fucking School Library..
I'm five for god's sake !!!!
And that was my interest lost
in Adults.

Hello Pauline...

That would definitely do it to a kid...

That's for sure...

Your troubles seemed more with adults which isn't good...

Imagine getting it from everywhere...

Adults, Kids, and Teenagers...

You better learn to be independent or you're totally screwed...
