Pitfalls And Prattfalls Of College Matriculation And Residence, September 9th, 1976 To June 7th, 1980 [XLIX]

College alma mater:  you took so much from

me, offering only goodies in exchange---

given with one hand, as you violated

me with the other.  Yes, I graduated---

silenced and broken


beneath the relentless onslaught of forces

from which I found neither shelter nor escape.

You changed my tangible joys to paper-thin

ghosts.  Finished, you tossed me out like the trash you

always said I was.
