Our school has an interesting disciplinary policy: if someone breaks the established rules, it's not enough for the school to enforce punishment. They have to ban whatever tool or behavior that helped them break the rules. This thinking shaped the policies of many schools, and it's why hooded clothing (which helps avoid identification by security cameras) is banned in some districts, just as an example. So one day a girl smuggled vodka into school in a water bottle (obviously against school policy), got hammered, and got suspended. And as the poem details, they subsequently banned water bottles. (Actually, water bottles had already been banned, but rule enforcement had gotten lax over the years, and the administration is now cracking down.) It's just funny and sad to me, because it's almost as if in an attempt to cut down on, say, school violence, the administration thinks of new things it can ban and new rules it can create instead of enforcing the old ones. It's almost as if they'd ban pencils because kids were stabbing each other with them, or ban talking cause sometimes kids curse at and bully each other. I hope people can read my poem and realize that change is needed in our school system, specifically in the area of discipline (though other areas certainly need reform as well). But my ambitions for inspiring change don't stop at schools, but at the entire American legal system, which allows for the irresponsible lawsuits which force these sorts of policy into fruition.
