Unavailability of Education

A cycle of poems «Is This Your American Dream?»

In halls of knowledge, a void so deep,
Education's light, hidden in sleep.
Young minds yearning, their thirst unquenched,
As opportunity's doors remain firmly clenched.

Unavailability's cruel embrace,
Denying knowledge, leaving an empty space.
In shadows they dwell, their spirits dimmed,
For education's promise, forever grimmed.

Teachers struggle, underfunded and worn,
Overcrowded classrooms, where dreams are torn.
Textbooks scarce, outdated, and torn,
Hindering learning, at every turn.

From rural villages to urban slums,
Education's absence, a cruel twist of thumbs.
Poverty's chains bind, opportunities lost,
As children suffer, paying the heaviest cost.

Girls and minorities, doubly denied,
Their voices silenced, their dreams set aside.
Discrimination's barriers, hard to break,
Preventing them from reaching their full awake.

Unavailability's cruel embrace,
Denying knowledge, leaving an empty space.
In shadows they dwell, their spirits dimmed,
For education's promise, forever grimmed.

Empowerment's key, a light to ignite,
Transforming lives, making wrongs right.
Education unlocks the path to dreams,
Empowering minds, dispelling the gleams.

Let us demand, let us fight,
For education's right, for all in sight.
Invest, support, and make it known,
That every child deserves a future they can own.

Unavailability's cruel embrace,
Denying knowledge, leaving an empty space.
In shadows they dwell, their spirits dimmed,
For education's promise, forever grimmed.

But hope flickers, like an eternal flame,
For a world where education's power reclaims.
Together we'll conquer, break down the wall,
And ensure education's light shines over all.
