The System Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDA EFGHI JKLMM GEKNK AOPKK| You claim that I do not want to listen to reasoning | A |
| At the same time you never speak the truth | B |
| You do not accept me in your clique because I disagree with your evil schemes | C |
| Perhaps you think I am a slow learner | D |
| But the things you teach are not worth learning | A |
| - | |
| I do not have to listen to what you say because I can see what you do | E |
| You promote prejudice and stigma in the society | F |
| And you discriminate against poor people | G |
| You are nothing but victimizers liars and thieves | H |
| What makes you think I would trust you or believe anything you say | I |

| You sold me an expensive key that does not fit any lock | J |
| And you taught me to knock on a door that never opens | K |
| How can I survive in your little beehive | L |
| When I sweat for my money you milk my pocket in the name of taxes | M |
| And you fill my head with empty promises | M |
| - | |
| I do not intend to take a chance on corrupt people | G |
| You greedy leaders gave me nothing of value | E |
| But you took away my few possessions | K |
| You pay me a useless shilling and you label me as a lazy and unwilling man | N |
| It is clear that you are opportunists and exploiters | K |
| - | |
| I am tired of the wrangling and your false preaching | A |
| You should ameliorate your judicial system | O |
| Frankly your so called justice is a complicated process and it is a sham | P |
| I do not think much of you and your unjust laws | K |
| You have built the system to benefit only the upper class | K |
