The Reality of School

At school we work through books,

never really learning everything,

I don't know my taxes,

But I'll always know my science,

And why leaves are green.


I'll never know how to pay a mortgage,

but I'll know about ancient history,

the middle east,

but never about my life,

I'll never know my life,

even in death.
