College Kool-Aid

Higher education a privilege not a right

Financially universities are out of sight

Choose A college, not cloaked in hypocrisy.

The one you can afford is mediocrity

Most try hard to resist Temptation’s sin

However eventually they just want to fit in

A feeble experiment, try something new

College students surrender without a clue

Not quite full grown , a woman or man

They do what they want because they can

Transitioning into, anything, something

They are on a quest to stand out, to shine

Their Grand Adventure to seek, to find

Escaping the rat race, a struggle , The grind

Considering all possibilities what is best

Experiencing the excitement of life’s zest

Contemplating who and what to become

A leader or A follower, success for some

 

They are Young , gullible, ignorant trusting

Naïve, Unsophisticated , easily deceived

It doesn’t matter if what they are told

Ridiculously implausible Is NOT true.

It’s something For them to believe in

It’s something they need to hang onto,

They drank the College Kool-Aid

Step One

 

Newbies, full of dreams, leave for college,

Young adults ,barely retaining knowledge

When They come home for thanksgiving.

In a crazed haze, moral confusion, Ensue

Erasing their history, they once  knew.

volatile temper, They jump to conclusion.

Their past reduced to just an allusion,

Monumentally,This is the very first time

They are allowed to have , Boisterous  

opinions of Worth and make it plausible.

Their thoughts, glimpses of intelligence.

A New Affirmation of personal dominion

Acknowledge Pronouns, how they Identify

Parents must; be content, conform, comply

Specifically, Never question, or ask why

College Kool-Aid

Step Two

 

Ready to argue , On every point

they sneak off to smoke a joint

College Kool-Aid

Step Three

 

Repeatedly They are taught ,Every parent

has filled their head with a million lies,

and their generation is much more wise

College Kool-Aid

Step Four

 

Indoctrination overtime Many discussions

Unfold Laced with Drugs, beer and wine.

They were taught to believe what they knew, as they grew,  twice told tales lies,

Which made disillusioned Parents sigh.

Absent minded they started to drink.

Consciously they never stop to think

College Kool-Aid

Step Five

 

Their tribe no longer Included; family,

Sister and brother, father and mother

Yes even Nana and Papa were deluded

Generations, traditions all up rooted

Drink longer and Stronger

College kool-Aid

Step Six

 

Taught to Destroy the entire world

Once held high ,our flag unfurled

The American flag now burning

Patriotism, A relic from the past, turning

Historical statues dismantled, pulled down

Americans look around, our foundation

The Rubble, pieces, broken on the ground

What made America special , not found

A College Marxist generation now enlisted.

The young and old, morality, sold twisted

Uncontrolled they no longer can be told.

The fruits of College Kool-Aid

Step Seven

Deception , humanization , foundation laid

Bourgeoisie hidden lurking in the shade

Powers that be ,One World Order parade

College staff, every teachers too, mixed

their evil brew, served, what they made

College Kool-Aid

Step Eight

 

mind bending manipulators Deployed

All means possible ,Our country destroyed

the Long term effects, fruits of Kool-Aid

America reimagined, A coo  from within

Attack on every front, Revolution begins

They don’t care what, they don’t care why

Contrived motives by the great divides

Parent and child on opposite sides

Our children are now walking away

from their family they once knew.

Those That nurtured and gave love too.

Master control takes hold, kitchen Bare

Congratulations!, Graduated, unaware

Receiving their diploma with a blank stare.

College kool-Aid

Step Nine

 

Brimming with anger, hatred, deep inside

Gross distain ,They don’t try to hide.

USE their Parents for a Financial ride

for their College Education with pride

Bewildered Parents don’t want to believe

Their youth would practice to deceive

Deception, achieved, Illusion never fade

College Kool-Aid

Step Ten

 

No more nonsense and No more pretend

Our Traditional education Now at an end

leads to communist Marxist, emancipation,

Marching, Molotov cocktails in the street

Mostly peaceful protest, burning the elite

Generations, bewitched , never knowing

Depravity showing , Take over growing

Illegal immigrants, parents cannot defeat

Inevitably America flounders, at the Brink

Eventually everyone will drink, once made

College Kool-Aid

 

Morally gone, zombies, walking dead

Education formed what is in their head

Decision time, Take the Red pill or the Blue

Really that’s all they’re taught to do

 

Easier to Control when empathy is gone. Honestly, How do We Combat this war?

How do We reason with our children

with 1 foot out the door. The erosion of

Families , Morality *** Marriage, racism,

Transgender ,M/F , giving/killing Birth

Everything is controversy on this Earth.

Relax borders open we’re going for a ride

United States Civil War, treason, spies

Hear the battle cry, How many will die?

Defending America’s right to be free

We are At the precipice, On bended knee

By design ,by those who hide in the shade

 

GOVERNMENT

well played

After all,

they MADE

the Kool-Aid
