THEME: MIRAGE

IBEAHEEM YUSUF

TITLE: Mirage  (Haiku).

Confusion river;

where back is front & vice versa

you move front & be back.

WAKCHIN NENGAK

TITLE; MIRAGE 

That "school will get you rich" is a mere ruse 

Daily forcing minds to accede a grey-bearded sham

See, that trove doesn't lurk in morrow 

But, we are too busy trying to get windy treasures; 

-a good job, 

-9 to 5 slavery & exploitation,

& a PAIN-SHOWN 

When we retire from strenuous jobs.

For, we have been deluded that this shadowy treasure still awaits us,

After bagging papery certs at the end of school's tunnel.

So, we walk miles - patching our soles without job 

Even when idleness is what awaits us.

See, try a new route to earning 

Or force your brain to fathom outworn & complex facts 

& later regret perusing abstract sense not life skills
