I have a goal of 50 days - 50 haikus - responding to 50 different songs. These are songs with lyrics that I feel close to. Number Thirty Nine is Walls Come Tumbling Down by The Style Council

Walls Come Tumbling Down

Break the class walls down
Power to the working hands
Rise and claim the day.

Please check out the great poetry from Paul Stewart and Tina D. Lopez who have joined me for the ride and created some beautiful work:
