The never to be graduates

The hard work of a father was undone,
Every penny he saved for studies of his son,
The efforts of so many years,
Was now in left in tears,
The son had failed to get that cherished seat,
The boy was shocked at the result,
It was a like an never ending insult,
He wondered where he had left himself down,


He didn’t know that someone wrote his academic fate,
A fate of remaining only a prospective graduate,
His right of being educated was robbed by a rule,
This was made by a gem of a political fool,
The law of regulation of not belonging to a favored class,
Had made the boy ‘s education into fracas,
Millions like the boy will lose their right to learn,
And with a chance to excel and also earn,

There will be the new uneducated section,
Uneducated not by choice, but by legislation,
Which will the new face of our nation………………..
They will be the new section, who will grow at an alarming rate,
They will be the uneducated, unemployed, never to be graduates………………………...

will try to keep it short,

start saving, coz by the time your kids grow up not only they wont be having any place in the education system may be you will be paying a new tax lablled something like low caste education tax or some backward class education tax generated out of the protectionist regime.

Over and above all this crap your kids will be required to be sent to some chinese, russian or new economies of those time.(dont have lot of hopes of US education system surviving that long)

So friends START SAVING.

at last something after my own heart. this was an issue i feel very deeply about, and yet have never been able to bring myself to write anything about it.

thank you for touching upon it in your own threadbare, essentials approach. how i would love to write something like this.

btw, a small doubt, why do you keep disappearing for months on end, and then suddenly reappear with a bang?

this issue has been quite prevalent in south...no wonder masses of students prefer to go abroad..considering the class they belong to..sad state of affairs must say!

hmm..strange but true..
nevertheless a good attempt to put something so social and blatant in a poetic mould..
