I'm still captivated by

"memorize memorize memorize

never think"

Aint' it the truth?

this completely explains my rebellious attitude against the education system and most teachers. some teachers were good, they encouraged creativity, but others just fed you the book and expected you to retain some of the information after you spat it back out onto the test papers. i like to learn, i have an unusual interest in science, but everything depends on the teacher. wonderful poem, very true to real life and expressive. -Ash

yeah i agree. answering exam questions isn't the most effective way of showing your knowledge. (look at einstein) anyway, i thought this was a thought provoking poem. nice work!
