used tires

              I have to see the steps first
              then see the staircase

the school is los­ing its steam
once again
re­plac­ing all the good teachers

yes, they want us to be machines
con­se­quences / purpose
days of teach­ing ‘pur­pose’
gone

gen­er­a­tions af­ter will ?
de­struc­tive as it seems
the ta­bles have turned

              no electricity
              give in   tell them they’ve got nice sta­plers   to pay some of the bills

the des­per­ate will do what they’re told
con­se­quences learned

they don’t care about the teachers
they just don’t
they nev­er will
they will nev­er even try

then they get the ro­bot­ic mil­len­ni­als to teach
they’ll be less em­path­ic and in a hur­ry to go home

these are the
fu­ture lead­ers    fu­ture doctors
phone tag­gers that com­ply with cor­po­rate missions
they are pro­found in be­ing con­trary to all resistance

be­ing de­sen­si­tized daily
essences of life are be­ing $$$ away

they are just ruthless
who teach­es next
the jan­i­tor teach­es ty­pog­ra­phy or the gym teacher ?

as much mon­ey as the school makes you’d think they were smart now
I hope jus­tice will be served some day

how far can they push us ?
we are all just

used tires

be­cause they can
