"Education"

What's the reason for all this?
Could there truly be a point?
What do they hope to gain
By putting us through this factory for people, giving us facts, opinions, ideas.
Oh no, not OUR thoughts and opinions and ideas,
But the ones that are "suitable".
They grind us down,
Day by day,
Week by week,
Month by month...
Year
by
Year?
If we ever get out,
Will there be a purpose?
What will I do,
When they pull me off the assembly line,
And shove me out into
the Real World?
