Education Degradation

School is hard but you’re doing well,

History’s dull and science is hell.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

The best years of your life,

Or so you’re told.

And you’ll look back fondly

If you grow old.

Your future rests in your own hands

Just meet the deadlines and the demands

A pity it’s all lies, a charade, a scam

The politicians lurk with soulless eyes

At a generation they must despise.

Poised, they destroy the future you’ve been sold,

Remortgage your life for the promise of gold.

Systemic markdown it’s brain drain falsification

Just one symptom of the degradation

Of the concept of state education.
