Big Man On Campus

Two Greek fraternities will battle it out. Go head to head in a do or die bout. They will prove their manhood with different games. Against each other they will make slanderous claims. The Greeks on the right are traditionalists and aggressive. The Greeks on the left are open-minded and progressive. These two houses are the biggest in the school, so who ever wins will have unquestionable rule. The rules are simple, their will be 3 rounds, so the first to win 2 gets to rule these grounds. The first challenge is, see who can raise more cash. They have five hours, so they ask students in a dash. After five hours, the judge collects the revenue. Now it is onto round number two. In this round you must get faculty teachers on your side. So they all hurried off to make them decide. The last challenge is getting students to join their pride. So they go out and offering things they can't provide. When it is all said and done, it comes down to only one. As they wait, they realize it doesn't matter who they choose. They realize that no matter what the ultimately lose. They took their money, divided their staff, and separated the students in half. The houses took something that was once great, divided it and turned it into a unrecognizable state.

just like politics, Chris. So many things are senseless that way. I did, however, get a kick out of the tv show Greeks. Did you ever see it? Hope you are enjoying the Soup since you joined up! andrea

It seems to me your poem became to big, either for you or your imagination but to finish they way you did, well i felt it was a let down.. good solid thoughts and ideas i will grant you that but a disappointing end..maybe you just need to leave it then go back..once you start telling a tale through rhyme the longer it goes the harder it gets..still enjoyed..cheers.
