Carbon two is a bit of a rewrite from a while back.

How many burnt toasts

Would it take to make a diamond?

……..

Study,Read, write,

Study numbers,

Pi Equations.

Get the knowledge that

Your going to need to

Shine in life, and Industry.

Lose your self to infinity

In books n loops a binary

Code that locks you to the floor.

But!

Oh… PaPa that is not for me

It only makes my head explode!!

………

So, if you!

Really have the need, for a big

Bright Sparkle!!

Go buy, a Diamond ring.

For all your books, and numbers

Leave me feeling dim.

The more the teacher points

The farther I am away, and

Is it such a loss

Not to have an answer to it all.

No, PaPa this is not for me

The more, and more

I read your books, the more

It sets me free.

All the sparkle!! of a piece of carbon

I can find on burnt toast!

A wise man once told me

Steer clear from the free fall to the rocks.

And!

You know what?

I think that he was right.

He too eats carbon toast!

that Sparkles!!

Like diamonds in soft light.

    Very funny piece. That’s what I thought of school and studying when I was younger. I wouldn’t have minded ‘carbon toast’ either. :-)
