Paper rolls

History notes,
casual clothes.
People only seem to have roles,
when written down on paper rolls.

It should be the perfect role allocation.
With the best at the top,
achieving at their station.
The others have to stop.
It sometimes leads to innovation.

Scattered English books,
their identity is different than it looks.
Names attached on mind-made strings,
it's a shame you have to leave -                         when your phone rings.

And the teacher talks and talks,
words spilling out like a waterfall.
And as he seemingly up to you walks,
your mind has to leave all the other folks...

...because we live life as individuals,
to have our names down on paper rolls.
