that is my identity as far as the school district goes
A mere 6 digit code that I must punch in each time I eat lunch
I'm just the barcode that is printed on the ID I am required to carry with me at all times

A sighing adolescent that spends too much time on their phone
I have no specific needs or individual thoughts
And what I have to say doesn't matter unless its in MLA format
