Breathing Instead of Achieving
Education doctrine
Is racked on test scores
Measuring up the most valuable.
Receptive impressions gouged
By a lionizing of form and procedure
Severing umbilical
With state branded protocol
Mass harvesting, mass manipulation
Come a time when
Teachers, legislators, parents
Can embrace possibilities
and give up defining.
What is already known
Is not worth repeating
So fill your own head
With miscellaneous garbage
And leaving budding youth
To their natural instincts
