NCAA

               The vast majority,
        Of student athletes,
                            Will never,
                  Play at a professional level,

   Yet these athletes,
                      During their prime,
          playing years,
                    
                     Are treated,
                                 As slaves,

         Sure,
             One can say,
                        They are paid,
                     Through,
            Education Oppertunity,
                          
    But the pure monopoly,
                            These all universites,
                     Opperate under,

          Puts all individuals,
                            who attend,
                     Under extreme,
                             Financial hardship.

             This lock box of knowledge,
                                  Our capitalist society
                           Operates under,
        Is rotten,
             To its core,
          
               And I find it,
                          Appalling,
                    That the sporting arm,
                        Of these universities,
                    Known as the NCAA,

        Profits off the backs,
                                Of Americas
                    sons and daughters.
