Death Warrants
Paying for their own execution,
the collegians trod on
Trapped inside their smart cellular phones,
in groups, but still alone
The administrators harken back,
slave owners long outlawed
And charge the most outrageous sums
for ‘knowledge’ truly flawed
The best among them dropping out,
before real harm is done
Like Gates and Jobs and Zuckerberg,
the future on the run
As zombies risen from the dead,
they march from class to class
Chasing a fatal document
—death warrants duly cast
(Villanova University Campus: September, 2019)
