September
How can this year now be on its descent
Even before my time has been well spent?
Schools bulge with students and teachers.
Lectures and homework take on familiar features.
Though what is distinctly unfamiliar and tragic
Is how quickly learning quality is losing its magic
Due to ineptitude of leaders we’ve put in place,
Whose capabilities and interests leave a dark space.
Just as leaves start to wither and fall from the trees
Let us not stand by as our schools fall to their knees.
Students who suffer from this system so dower
Will be our incompetent, dishonest leaders tomorrow.
