Poems
Feb 2020
Chalkdown
The human mind
remains bleeding edge,
but no one pays for
attic salt,
the best shall walk away
from the spaghettification
of the school system.
And roman candles
will go unlit.
Where's your rΓ©sumΓ©, Johnny?
He will hunt-and-peck
to create, lest ever
comprehend, his future
as a basement
mixologist,
'cause no one cares
to drink in education.
And his roman candle
will go unlit.
Classrooms are a thirstland,
an empty canteen,
pre-loved Maggie
βshe'll graduate
quite parched,
assuredly vagarious,
modeling merkins
for period piece ****.
And her roman candle
will sadly go unlit.
