Education

A long and arduous Journey
Like a Pilgrimage
We all have to go through
As students.

Along the way
We learn Subjects
that are important
At least for exams
To get the grades
for our certification.

Yet we do not use them throughout our lives
Like that funny thing called Adverbial.
Adverbial is inconsequential at times,
Yet without them sometimes
The sentence is incomplete
Or not make any sense. Like this.

Likewise
During examinations
If we omit Subjects
We get Objects
Coming after us
like enjambments, line over line, line after line, and it spills on over and over, running after us, over us, it runs on to the next line and after.
Not so nice

After all
We wonder
what examinations
are for
they have Subjects
and attached to it, Objects.
Definitely not Adverbials
What are they?

The destination?
Examination
Does it equal to
Education?

It’s a wonder
my sanity still reminds
Or is it?
after all that trekking up hill
of the horrible Journey.
This makes no sense to me at all!
