Modern Diplomacy

Those who confuse Shubert with Mendelsohn, Most likely can’t tell Mozart from Hayden. They wander through the world without their culture on, And cat-call Aphrodite while fishing for Poseidon. Conspiracy theories have them nervous as ferrets. Academic credentials are considered demerits. They huddle in militias where their rumors bare fangs. In a world where truth and justice are fighting for air, A diploma’s only value is the wall on which it hangs.
