POEM RAP!!!!

If you feel like dropping out of school, you are LUDICROUS
Acting like this is like the action of a NOVICE
You''ll run your life with mistakes and your body will be quite SCABROUS
So don't ever drop out, just go straight to the office

-The first quote seems agreeable. People assume poses by seeing what fits in their comfort level.
-Corruption is part of life, for we recognize it and we determine whether to be indifferent or do something.
