Studying to Qualify

For purposes of a higher income...
Those who pursue a college degree is done.

Few seem to seek an education,
To comprehend humanity.

And from observances...
An abundant need of it goes unserved.

Not many are wishing to greed for this...
As a desire to feed or crave its worth.

Many are wanting image!
And studying to qualify...
To get as much of it as they can get.
