Blind hunger for a Degree of any sort
Irrespective of whether the much-needed grey matter
Perseverance, discipline and or endurance
Are there or not
Is something sad to watch.
Fly by night Colleges and Universities
Springing up at every street corner
Is fuelling the frenzy
Making everyone wants to hold on to something
Whether the capacity is there or not.
Instead, engage the society in a useful manner
Not always endorsing everything
Encourage intellectual rivalry
Stop following trends
And be different.
Ones who seek this path
May end up sans a hood or a cloak
Few photographs to adorn the walls
At the end of the day.
But when the push comes to shove
Sharpness earned in such a manner
Will hold their ground better
Than the ones bought cheap
On street corners.
