Geology and the Other Ologies
Geology, geometry, biology, biography
Anthropology, psychology, geography, photography,
Psychiatry, psychometry, cartography, graphography,
So many ol-ogies and og-Raph-ies, so little time.
Yet am I studying any of them?
Not today. Today I am sitting in my lazy girl,
Watching a year’s worth of a designer show.
I have been starring at other people working like mad.
Learning nothing but as it is my day off, not feeling a bit bad.
The ologies and ographies can wait another five years or so.
When I retire and I have watched every design show,
This is when I can study all the ologies and ographies.
So leave me alone today if you please.
