...But I know this much...
Like exhibits in a zoo...
they roam around
yet feel caged...
Utterances
in nonsense
makes no sense
in this discombobulation
of downtrodden flesh...
They gather in herds
for a glimpse of hope,
that tomorrow's trek
will offer up some light
at the mouth of life's
darkened tunnel...
though the biggest obstacle
for anyone to their successes
is an 'excess' of the lack
of mental comprehension...
which speaks
to the simple fact
that in order to have a chance,
at a sturdier life foundation
we all need to take a glance
at a "never ending..." education...

Wise words PIKM!! and the day we stop learning is the day we die, but the most important thing is to know how to apply the things we learn.
I love the choice of words in this poem, it certainly gives a nice precise impact, nicely crafted my friend.

I love the concept of perpetual education...I've come to the conclusion that our education system is drastically failing our youth in many ways. Learning needs to occur at every level of every day, in my opinion. But...that's just me. Great write! :)
