My Education My Pride
many days I've spent
without any aromatic scent
life bitter until now I'm hopelessness
all foes have deserted only boredom and loneliness
lack of brown buttered bread I'm exhausted for real
parenting not fruitful here
I'm hoping for looters to propose a deal
unemployment galore nothing to spare
I will resort to education
they said it is a map to other tribes
my tiny brain will expand with information
at least I will avoid being hired by paying bribes
its a challenge I'm hoping to conquer
folks were illiterates, but not me
