college is a copout.

i could live on an isolated farm doing routine manual labor
trudging day and night in dirt, sweat and shit
and find more artistic inspiration than i do in a classroom
my peers breathe arrogance and my teachers who know so much
know nothing about the real world, the world that i want to live in
i don't know if i'll be here next semester
but i know that i'll have greater control over my life
if i leave all this shit behind
than if i continue wasting my time trying to find a place
in the academic world.

  1. amen!
    let us go to the mountains and meadows and live a more exotic and rural life. Leave the city and false academics behind. Become one with the roots and the soil and begin new life. Praise the harvest and the kill. Lets wake up from this dream and begin something new, something more loving, sober, and true.
