Poem: Paper degrees

Uneducated in the eyes of the sophisticated society with paper degrees.
My antiquated truths fall flat on ear of supposed open minded thinkers. 
Saying the future is nothing like the past,
snarking at the humble begins at which most of us came from.
I  show no shame for my start. 
I am proud of my hard working parents.

Foolish are those who see a paper hung on a wall and assume that paper stand for knowledge.
When indeed that paper could stand for payments. 
They say our time is the time of accessible information.
How arrogant my generation.
To think the information they find at the end of key word search to be true.
Without real research.
Our time is the time of impostors and hypocrites.

Take a good look back at the greats and you will see.
We are on the same time line of destruction.
Egos to big cannot be carried for long. 
But my words are just one uneducated person's opinion. 
One who does not learn from the past will be doomed to repeat it.
A saying i agree with all too well.

But for all of those who think we are the first to be this big.
just pick up a book on Romans or the Greeks.
Do a little research in the library of Alexandria . 
See what happened to people from the past who thought they were all knowing.
Where might they be now?

Humility is the only way for true survival.
So much like the great we will be in books.

Where future children guess if we were fact or folklore
