the school caretaker

In the corner of the playground
down dark and slimy stairs,
lived a monster with a big nose
full of curly hairs.

He had a bunch of key rings
carved out of little boys,
he confiscated comics
and all our favourite toys.

He wore a greasy uniform,
looked like an undertaker,
more scary than a horror film,
he was the school caretaker.

I left the school some years ago;
saw him again the other day.
he looked rather sad and old
shuffling on his way.

It's funny when you grow up
how grown-ups started growing down,
and the snarls upon their faces
are no more than a frown.

In the corner of the playground
down the dark and slimy stairs,
sits a lonely little man
with a nose full or curly hairs

That was your caretaker?
Okay, I can't judge that.
But for the chosen rhythm
it's too negative or too long.
Decide yourself.

"what impression do you have about the school caretaker? "

The operative word is YOU.

The purpose of the assignment is for you to have your own opinions and for you to interpret a poem. It is not for ME or SOMEONE else to do YOUR work.
