A poem about sitting in a classroom.

I sit in a classroom of zero motivation,

Fighting sleep for an hour our of the day.

Why do we have to learn something so useless,

It’s not like we are ever going to use this.

Barely passing test and getting through the homework,

Wanting a little excitement, or something else to work with.

We all have to pass
Through a tunnel
We all call time,
We all came through
Even I and you
So when we arrive
We have to face the same tunnel
Our parents did trace
Now before
We our footprints
In love trace
Before passing
Our own progeny through
That tunnel,
Footsteps of the same kind
As we all do in time
And leave footprints
On the sands of time,
We like normal humans
Have to trace
So attend your class
My dear one,
With grace

The education system has always been behind of the business world. At least three steps. What you learn in school now is already history in the real world. Some kids do better when they learn a trade within a company and have targeted education which is upto date. That is usely run by the company itself. Three day working and earning, two days school.

Nice and angry. Although school is just a distant memory to me, I recall it as two years of teaching you how to talk and the rest of the time telling you to shut up.
