the wires are coming,
the electrodes are humming,
connecting a population
of non-thinkers to the idea machine,
it’s the educationists dream,
thousands of born individuals
forced into a collective brain drain,
it’s a subservient schooling system
where facts are obscured
buried under the upheaval
of abusive discipline
“listen to what you’re told,
don’t question anything”,
I feel like a dying fish,
hooked through the lip,
dragged through the system
then hung out to season,
I can’t locate my vocation
through the wave of mass persuasion,
I want to remain who I am,
I don’t wish to be programmed,
the illusion of knowledge
that we’re taught in college
doesn’t hold weight outside
the school gate,
the wires are coming,
the electrodes are humming,
all and one are the same
plugged into the central mainframe
connecting a population
of non-thinkers to the idea machine,
it’s an educationists dream,
born individuals
forced into a collective brain drain
