Edukate

 

Edu take

Edu cater

Edu's fate is now not later

Edu bait

Edu rate

Edu's late is near not never

Edu bathe

Edu plate

Edu ate it when? not dated

Edu's knowledge is unmated

Edu knows what ignorance hated

Edu feels he was born say-ved

Edu show case to enable

Edu's truth is labelled fable

Edu's soul picture pinn-acle

Edu's silence needs no license

Edu's freedom needs no speech

Edu feeds but doesnt eat

Edu leads but doesnt leech

Sigh

Everyday in class Edu sits quietly

His knowledge supreme but no ego to fire it

Eyes on the desk, classmates a pest

Edu sees this period as an unnecessary test

It gets tighter everyday grandma when will it burst?

When will mother land and whisk Edu back to Earth?

As he fathers his young and the smoke hits his lungs

He prays for his own that edu will not take
