Ignorance

Someone told that "The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance"

Oh yes, I'm not undone!
I'm most expensive than anyone!
I wanted to be ignorant; it's not fun!

Education! what a silly passion for learning
By this, people run behind the big earning
What the blind fashion of knowledge
Biased education brings the stained pitch

Nowadays, I forget all my educations
I keep myself into the chain of ignorant motion
Consequently all biased learned applause me
And the earthly income makes me rich and piety
That's why I say- 
"Ignorance is expensive
when all kind of educations are 
ignored by the ignorance!"

Governments do NOT want an educated populace. We are easier to control if they keep us ignorant. Good job on this one.

Interesting poem, Mahtab, yes all the stress in the world today starts with being educated, you use the word ignorance, in my culture it is the simple aspects of life one yearns for...and there is nothing wrong with simplicity along with love, that is the powerful aspect of all..Great poem.

Thought provoking, I believe ignorance is bliss, agree knowledge leads to bias. We are going to leave it all and go away. Less thoughts,less ego.
