Poems
Apr 2018
The Most Common Forms of the Scantron(r)(c)(tm) are the Shakespearean, the Spenserian, and the Petrarchan
No lovesick lad ever poured out his heart
To a Scantron®©™ card and its suave machine
Posed seductively in brushed aluminum
In a smoky corner of the faculty commons
Or with a thundering Number Two scribed
A manifesto that menaced the world
(But bubbled carefully within the squares)
And ground it through a Scantron®©™ 888
For indeed
Moses brought not Scantron®©™ down from Sinai
To teach God’s laws through an electric eye
