What My Teacher Really Taught me

Syd

All we are;

machines

 

blindfolded

and 

muzzled

 

spoon-fed lies,

submissive to society 

 

when I say "open your eyes"

I do not mean it literally 

 

Take the box from your head

and become human

    Very well written, very meaningful. A positive message about life and understanding. I guess we all have that one teacher who changed our outlook on life, who forced us to face reality, who taught us to see. It is difficult sometimes to see through the lies, to find the reality. to see things as they are, but we must keep on trying. Wonderful poem. - Phil A.

    Yep, this is very true. True but sad.
