High Education

Thirteen years spent in school,
Working to receive a piece of paper and a handshake.
Always focusing and following the rules,
And near the end just trying to stay awake.
That one piece of paper is the key,
Intelligence used to be a virtue,
Ignorance used to hurt you,
But in the past few decades the roles have reversed . . . I though about rhyming but now it's a free-verse,
Summer time left and died
Forever gone
But soon
But soon it will be revived
And be reborn into something new
Education is not a privilege and this nation cannot allow "education to be a luxury". “America!” I cry, “ You cannot afford to send another ghetto child to prison instead of college.
Beware Icarus your father warns,
About you staying in the middle course,
Don’t fly too high or you’ll soon learn
about the dangers of the melting flare.
Everything I Need To Know
Everything I need to know I learned in High School
Get your homework done
Don’t be a lame
Say nothing
Live, learn, laugh, love
Learn what you can
I'm not one to do things upfront and outstanding.
I'm shy, but I work hard.
When I create and draw
Inspiration from my friends and fans have stricken them with Awe
School of all sizes
all for one purpose
to engage
to learn
to pursue
to lead
to educate
we are the generation made to lead the way
with high education is the way
