college (Free verse) by i_am_the_popsicle
all of your books about college are sprawled out all over
your bed
lost in a sea of fleece blanket and bright yellow post it
visions of granduer fill your head
based on a few choice statistics
and a number of strategically place photographs
your imagination is a glossy pamphlet
where the teacheres are second to none
save plato and socrates
genius with spirit is all that one needs to get by
and you ask me when you come down to dinnr
if Harvard is really that hard to get into
you never have lived in the real world have you
no wonder you didnt get better than a C+ on yesterday's math quiz
no wonder you spend your nights dreaming,
instead of studying like crazy like all of the others
