Bri's Room (not done) (Free verse) by Sunshine Conkey

A little girl named Bri had an awful lot of stuff she saved and saved it but it wasn't enough. She put it in a closet and stacked it on the floor But even when her room was filled She wanted more and more. One day while playing She wanted her special pen to draw her favorite doll. But after looking everywhere, she couldn't find them at all.

Over-educated would not include teaching a man to fish.
Over-educated or educated past his intelligence level is more like giving some idiot, with an IQ of 75 and an 18th century idealogy, the means, plans, and instruction/education to make nuclear reactors and warheads. He has no ability to grasp the responsibility or concequences inherent in such information. He will use it as a neanderthal would be expected to: with lack of planning, judgement and wisdom. He may be able to understand how to put one together and how to use it, but he can not grasp the analytical reasoning one should have in order to be entrusted with the use of such information. This would be a clear example of educating a man past his intelligence level. With the results being easy to guess.
