The Kids

Writer: Armaan YusufArmaan Yusuf

Quiet down Kids!

Quiet down Kids!

I'm sorry to inform you that

We have a substitute teacher

Welcome Mr. Ratchet.


Hi kids! I would like you to meet Bob

(Hi Bob)

As usual, he was healthy and fine

Except he had a large canine

And Bob had no friends

Cause appearances matter

Not to say of course

His face was battered

So Bob hung around the diner everyday

Worked overtime to get a minimum pay

And Bob was rarely invited to parties or play dates

So he was a loner, as to simply say

A morning he awoke, to find a jolly mail

He was over excited and started to go pale

An invitation to a luxury party he got

He could have some fun, that's what he thought

But in the fancy restaurant, he remained a loner still

Until he observed a group of guys popping pills

Bob started a conversation and was sure he would be shoved

But to his surprise, he was beloved and hugged

And the guys told Bob that he was their best friend

On one such condition, he had to do everything with them

Bob agreed with a smile and extended a hand

Instead of a shake, he got a pouch with rubber band

A white powdery stuff, Bob was too confused

The guys taught him the correct way to use

Bob asked them what is this?

They said drugs of hibiscus

Now Bob wanted to say no

But peer pressure made him do it

With a sniff, he started hurling

But his mind was transported

With seizures and fits, he spread flat on the ground

The guys then bailed seeing him doing rounds

Bob got up lost in sense

Bolted and climbed up the fence

Halted and fell

Until he saw Jesslina by the well

He grabbed her by her hair

Jesslina was jump scared, noticing Bob

You know what she said

Cut it Bob, not funny, I know it is you

But Bob did not let go, he was high too

And from that day onwards

Jesslina was nowhere to be seen

And Bob hung at the diner

Sick and green

But no one knew who was Bob

Cause he didn't exist

After that one morning when he didn't woke up

And that was it!


So kids! Learn learn

It's for the better

Drugs are bad for mind

Leaves you in tether

And here I take my leave

Hope you all learned something new

Stay Safe and strong

You can ask questions too.
