Education

Cram it in,
wham it in,
in any manner you like,
when it does spike,
get it out,
and let it sprout,
you must score,
despite the process being bore,
forget it all after you have scored,
and get about doing routine job chores,
this is the education we all take and give,
does it produce the men we need,
or is simply an entry gate,
what was the need to cram,
that now you have forgotten,
this routine you could have done,
when you were just on gate one,
is it not true,
that most educate for a place,
then do works common place,
dig sharper and retain,
what you learned years before,
use it to the best effect,
that will be education in fact.
