the hardest thing to get out of is a system

one system leads to another system

system are made for problems

systems do not solve them

Systems form institutions

though systems are geared to help

there are no solutions

the real problem lies deep in the system

systematically we are dramatically

drawn by the government cheese

like bee's to honey trees

forced down on to our knees

to beg for our needs to be met

worth more than the wages we get

though we may swell the plan

in the grand scheme of things

is for us to rebel against

the system causing us to fail

though we past with high test scores

we find that our grades are poor

we are sore and hell no 

we can't take no more

they are in full riot gear

waiting for us to come through that door

just to be thrown to the floor

though we may follow its hard

to trust those who are hollow

they give us food stamps 

but who's minding the store

the system is a maze with corridors

forcing us to feed on each other 

like carnivores once we get over the hedge

don't look down we are standing on the ledge

though we may fall we are not dead

not until Simon says jump

I really like the way you think. I totally agree with your poem. I'm currently working on a poem called " We are slaves to the system" This poems hits the nail on the head to what I was going to write. Beautiful work Wize Dom. Always keep that pen movin. Oh I hope you don't mind me sharing this one.
