You Do Not Like

When you find a feeling that is uncanny
Do you think manic depressive sanity
May seem so tried and also very tried
While your mouth will be open wide.

So you see I am somewhat surmising
If you should see something surprising
Load mind with ammunition from education
Don't just sit there with much sedation.

Must move on in a matter of speaking
Even if body is reeking and speech is squeaking 
Prepare plan and pattern and on level let it be
Sufficient so you can satisfy all curiosity.

Education encourages minds to expand
And profits depend on supply and demand
Either may have been a boom or a bust
Ended up deep in debt and died in disgust.

Maybe you might make it an absolute must
Before students to school they all be bussed
Instead of being greeted with a big groan
Leave at home and they can learn while alone.

So what do you think?
