DADDY has books and daddy has to go to class what does daddy have and what does daddy do DADDY he tows the two of us around
what do we do while the DADDY is in class TIME we do time just like the prisoners in jails do the children just dont understand that on a someday DADDY will then be a man we wait out in the hall the classroom is too small what does daddy have and what does daddy do
HE has the two of you just wait for after class we have to wait for class is through for DADDY to be a man someday comes to you but never when it counts the children will get old while DADDY mounts the steps up to his class

this poem has class, too.
It leaves me with questions, like: exactly why is class so important, are the kids neglected, what does Daddy suffer? - I am left with a lot to think about afetr reading your unique poem, with an elusive theme and an unusual structure. I like it.
