Class

As I walked across the quad’s grass
the earth said to me 
“I gave you your brain power, 
now do what you please.”

The brick surroundings of Academia
scowled at the grass, 
“Don’t tempt this spirit to break free, 
I’m her only ticket into society.”

I stood tall with the buildings, 
but felt one with the grass.

So, I’ve decided today 
I’m not going to class.
