How To Beat The System

by | Oct 9, 2022 | Poems

If you can’t explain something in a few words, you probably don’t understand it well.  Here are a few words on how to beat the system:
Do only things you love doing
And don’t stop
Don’t even slow down
Or you will be reduced
To a cog
Which doesn’t care about you
And when you die
Will replace you
As though you never existed
Your only hope is to find
And keep doing it
That’s the only way
To beat the system
That’s the only way
To elevate yourself
Above being a cog
In a dysfunctional machine
Find what you love
And keep doing it
To find what you love
Follow your curiosity
Finding what you love
Is a process of discovery
Curiosity is your guide
Do what you are most curious about
