The Cult of Marks

This system divides us with these narrow walls,

Science, language we must get it all.

They say our mind is a marvelous wonder,

Yet they try to represent it with a mere number.

There is more to life than that pair of digits,

It encourages mindless mugging, not engaging our wits.

We fight we argue for more of these numbers,

While our mind slumbers.

- Param Nayar
