Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

In the Dark

Education was meant 
  to provide the tools

Not to build the
  house

Colleges wounded by 
  ‘enlightened’ fools

Where by deception  
  truth has bled out

Young minds are
  now lost

At a very great 
  cost

To a system  
  rigged from the start

And for grades they will 
  kneel

With all verity
  concealed

Mindlessly searching for their 
  next class
     —in the dark

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
