They may want to bring back,
the selective schools.
Simplify a complex reality,
the underlying relationship of keenness,
wherever it comes from.
Persisted,
portraying the label,
developed by power.
Uncoerced,
questioned as viable.
Symptoms worsening,
getting education right for the working class.
Their children remain a challenge,
the odds are stacked against.
Unstilling aspiration,
strive to create opportunities,
The gap in monetized literacy,
bright but poor.
They say children are the purest form of truth,
uncoerced, they express their feelings from the root,
A child may not always declare a parent's innocence,
unless it makes logical sense,
If privilidged, a child will look at the parent's modus
operandi, status, dignity and pedigree,
Then declare, "Those accusations are foreign to me!"
If a child hails from humble beginnings they will look at
the variables of all things, but go to the heart of human nature,
There, he/she will get a reliable answer,
because people don't usually stray too far from who they are
in soul and spirit.
