Nor is it possible to thought

Was chewing little bits of String.
At last he swallowed some which tied
Itself in ugly Knots inside.

On the kind bosom of eternal love

and speak (to what purpose?) to your silent ashes,
since now fate takes you, even you, from me.

My head is bald,
but I don't care.
I'm not so tall,

Graduation Day is the climax of a dream.
A parental dream that began when a child is born,

Loved the commercials he saw on TV.

In communal riots
But he forgot it!

Now, joy is born of parents poor,
And pleasure of our richer kind;
Though pleasure's free, she cannot sing
As sweet a song as joy confined.

Hanging between you and reality
My boy mind well, it is your duty.

We seach for peace; our heart is full of burden,
Forgive us dear parents
For our rebellions for evil.

Chapter 9: Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Friendship & Mentoring

On the first day of school, every first grader was assigned a ‘big brother' or ‘big sister' from the 8th grade. These were our designated guidance counselors and caretakers during the entire term of the first year. This was something the 8th graders took seriously and a responsibility that not every 8th grader was given. If you were lazy or irresponsible, this honor would go to someone else. The care of these younger children was a serious matter, and you treated the 1st grader in your charge like your younger brother or younger sister at home.

But the children of war…and their parents…are not so lucky because day or night…on the ground or in the air…how can parents protect their children when there are monsters everywhere?

We smoke because our parents do
Sometimes that's the reason why we chew,
And we also learned how to swear and how to curse
Also by listening to our parents first.
