Play time
By meadowcroft1964
01 May 2008




     Here I go again

                 The prize goes to who can guess where I spent my school play times 

Play time
Snake time
Play ground
Snakes pit
So I sit
Smelling shit
Bruises mark the body
Words poison the soul
with 
 the venom
that they spit
So I sit smelling shit

School Bullies?
Written by mia_ms_kim (976 comments posted) 1st May 2008
Is that what you are talking about? If not, sorry for telling the story below. I just couldn't resist it. 
 
My best friend, before she met me, used to be bullied by a group of girls in school. She used to hide out in the school toilet during play time and cry until the bell rang. When I turned up as a new kid in the school, those girls asked me to join them in persecuting her. I became their victim's friend instead and my new friend wondered if I was an angel sent by God. (She followed me home one day secretly to see if I had a home or flew into heaven after school. We are still best friends after all these years.) 
 
Some years ago my friend was on the panel to employ people for her faculty (she is an academic) and lo and behold, one of her childhood persecutors was on the short list, actually the one who was the most vicious. My friend tells me her childhood experience had nothing to with her rejecting her former persecutor's application.

Yes it's true I spent most of playtime sitting in the loo 
Happy days.
