Low literacy is political

It’s not in the interest of the government today

To make us all more literate for they would have to pay.

I don’t mean the money,thr teacher and the schools

I mean to give the adults more literacy tools.

The reading age is measured from 4 to 16 years

Put the average in our great country is only 9, I fear.

So we cannot read the Times the Guardian just the Sun.

Before a new Election, the reading is no fun.

To make it very plain if the people cannot read

Someone else will give them what they think they need.

Breaking it all down into babies kind of food,

Writing little articles and photographing nudes.

Running reading lessons would be political indeed.

Then we could read anything and get our mental foodm
