Common Knowledge

Common Knowledge

A Poem by Jessica Wood
"

Just wanted to have this idea on here before i forgot it.

"
Common Knowledge 
the measure of ones intellect is judged by their IQ
why do we let these two letters rule our lives?
we should be able to find our own way
without the pressure of being the best.
we are pushed to our limits 
just so we can reach that top score.
we should be told to find our own way in life
before we are forced to solve for X and Y.

Very true, and the right amount of angst. Why should the code of normativity be so oppressively garbed around our existence? Keep writing Jessica.

Best,
M.
