On solstice day I meet my favored friend To mourn the ailing boy among our trench: Avenge his death! We wonder to amend; Caress his hair or keep away from stench? Oh holy night, my pious soul becomes Enthralled by devil’s work; I suffer to The darkened venom: kin spreading crumbs Upon the poor. Proclaim me free in lieu! On dinner, gold in sight, I think of glee; Abundance lies within, or may it be An adage set by men to bypass fees Of countless nights consuming petty tea? Unfold me, great immortal pet of all The feeble mortals; keep on, make them crawl.

True Humility
On solstice day I meet my favored friend To mourn the ailing boy among our trench: Avenge his death! We wonder to amend; Caress his hair or keep away from stench? Oh holy night, my pious soul becomes Enthralled by devil’s work; I suffer to The darkened venom: kin spreading crumbs Upon the poor. Proclaim me free in lieu! On dinner, gold in sight, I think of glee; Abundance lies within, or may it be An adage set by men to bypass fees Of countless nights consuming petty tea? Unfold me, great immortal pet of all The feeble mortals; keep on, make them crawl.
To all boarding school babies (myself included.)
