What we teach our kids poem
We’re teaching our kids lessons,
that they would learn anyways
Why not teach them knowledge,
that they may never find out
The aspects of life that we examined,
stumbled upon in the moment
A lit firefly in the aphotic night,
that may never come across again
To teach them how to think,
instead of what to memorize
A robotic soul caught in the headlights,
programed to see what the world wants
Philosophies that goes beyond childhood,
that matures us into adults
An old book of a heart’s fantasy,
Growing wiser with time
That they can control who they are,
and not loose all they have gained
A train derailed on the tracks,
steaming and puffing down to oblivion
