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)
