Independent Thought!

There are chances to enhance
And re-create your mental stance
Before it’s too late to care if you bleed
Or sweat until one bead
Trickles upon the grass like dew.
You didn’t try did you?
Freeze, thaw, and renew
Because the laws
Are written by those who knew
Before the first hand in class flew.
Moving nothing but a smile,
As if bluffing all the while,
They test and dissect whatever intellect
Hides silent
Until it’s spoken clear as a siren—
Satisfying like honey to an insect.
Calming now
They are calling down
The next hexed to endure
The ideas they make you blabber for.
