"The books that help you most are those which make you think that most. The hardest way of learning is that of easy reading; but a great book that comes from a great thinker is a ship of thought, deep freighted with truth and beauty."

I stand still
Eyes burning the back of my head
I’m waiting until,
He shoots me dead,
I turn to face,
The blood-sucking creature,
He walks with grace,
He is my teacher,
The question he ask,
I do not know,
I’m hidden behind a mask,
Wanting to go,
He frowns and goes onto repeat,
I am unable to answer,
my heart skips a beat
‘Sir I’m sorry, I don’t know the answer’
He replies with ‘No it’s because you’re a chancer!’

I don't where I got the idea for this, it sort of just came to me and I wrote it down.
