This had a very grounded feel to it. Grounded yet still kind of 'out there'. Distant.

First thing that came to mind was a kind of 'ghetto' life. Even when he tries to get out, he gets dragged back in. And killed. And so his 'seed', just like he did, get's born into this vicious circle.

I felt you could've elaborated a bit more in parts. Not so much more detailed lines. But more so one or two more lines. MAybe further explaining about the graduation. And/or why he was not able to get out of the ghetto with his education. One or two lines would've done in my opinion.

I liked the piece. It had that 'real' effect cos of the way you wrote it. Yet the insight into the topic (which was quite simple in a way) was subtely resounding.
