Jaipal Singh - Education Sysyem

The irony of
Our education system is
It grooms us to compete
And secure a job
To earn our livelihood, and
Position of authority for some.

It seldom provides us
The wisdom and ethics
To be a good citizen
Or even a human being.

Good people
Either inherit it
Through inborn instincts
From family elders or teachers
Or pick up from surroundings
As growing child and teenager.
