The Wall

A random thought just popped in my head while I was tryna sleep in this hot and humid room. I remember back in my high school days when us kids tried to front like we were the coolest kids in the world. We had this wall in our school commons where mostly the minority (blacks and latinos) would just chill at. See this spot was our chill spot and it was like a generational thing. You couldnt be on the wall unless you were a senior or a junior and if you were anything less than that well...lets just say that that means you were TOO KOOL 4 skool. But what was so cool about it was that it overlooked the entire commons area. You could see everyone and we used to make fun of people without even knowing. We used to make fun of ourselves, laugh,chill, and even bag girls on the wall. I don't know why this popped in my head but it made me realize how young we were and the things that we used to do. It also coincidentally made me think of those slavery days when young black males and females used to be sold on big brick walls. I don't want to turn self-righteous or nothing on y'all but you should see where I'm going with this. The only question I have for y'all is...did you have any "Wall" in your high school and if so leave a comment and let me know how you feel about it now.
