Provoking Thought

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Should life be run off what we're school taught?
I answer that question with a simple retort,
How much algebra gets used as an adult?
Three whole lessons for science?
Told to shut up and listen in silence?
Devoid of provoking thought,
Keeping it so very closely to a nought.

      Yeah, it's all a load of rubbish, they should be teaching gematria but that's the secret code they use lol.

        We could say - spit it out man - say ABC, not a load of rubbish algebra. Who understands it anyway? lol.
