I am not a student, I am a Machine
A student learns
The moment I hand in that paper, it is a big thing
A big fuck you to the teacher that can’t teach
A big help to my grade that needs boosting
A big thank you to the friend that gave it to me
But the moment I turn in that paper
I am no longer a student; I am a Machine
A student yearns to learn
A student is willing to spend the time
The effort
The commitment to something she has no knowledge of
A student yearns for knowledge
Yet we live in a world where we don’t seek knowledge; we find them
We look for sources to make us seem better
To be better
To be higher in our class
Better in our grade
We look for ways to
Cheat
The
System
The moment a student finds an answer, she is not a student any longer
But a machine
One that looks for the right answer
That chooses not to take the time to make a mistake
She looks for the right answer that helps her
But doesn’t really
A student chooses to learn
A machine chooses the answer
