Learning to Read

twist the sounds

bitter seeds in my mouth

nothing makes sense, i can't read 

a series of meanigless words stumbles out

bitter seeds in my mouth

i'm in the dummies group

a series of meanigless words stumbles out

an object of scorn to the teacher

in the lowest reading group for dummies

when suddenly something clicks 

an object of scorn to the teacher

she doesn't notice my amazement 

when suddenly something clicks 

i twist the sounds

she doesn't notice my amazement 

everything makes sense,  i can read
