Just a Thought From One Who's Taught

Professors found a haven in academia
    a safe port in the storm of big business' toxemia  
  As meaningful as writing articles for encyclopedias
    as daring as interning for social media... 
 
  So now Professor's young charges want 'safe spaces'
    far away from the slug-it-out world of rat races
  Let me prove my point, get down to actual cases
    to ensure I've covered my derriere and other places

Are you in a safe place…be careful when you sit down…get down to brass tacks…who longs for the rat race anyway

It's a war out there ... and in many schools these days. Thanks for sharing the way it is with us through your fine poetry, my friend. God be with you, Bill
