"Useless Knowledge" a Poem by Dalton Johnson

USELESS KNOWLEDGE

As I sit, I see rows.
Rows of knowledge, line the room.

In these rows, you can learn, anything, your heart desires.

Endless possibilities, line this room. All you have to do, is sit and learn.

As I sit, from my comfy chair, I indulge, in the endless rows.

You could say, I want to learn. But truly, I want to burn.

Personally, I don’t want to burn, but, I want to burn,
the endless rows, that teach me nothing.
