The College Objective


Asking heavy questions about
inconsequential things. That’s
Humanities. Science finds

the animating nonsense. Fairy-
lands of Arts fog any goals, putz
around in marshmallows.

The Business School, of course,
features heavy lifting. Grounded

in philosophy of Galt. Halt-
ing dingbats and dancers

at the door. In Engineering
nothing changes in the mind.
Should have kept the slide-rule.

Importance of the Longevity of Aubergine


21st Century Warfare

They droned them quite dead, three
spare children in a row, and then built
a school could be placed down in California.

People came from a hundred miles to see it.

I complained that my children couldn't attend such
an edifice, so they compensated me with two crates
of eggplants. Purply plump!

We're very high in the mountains, never grown here,
so we worked them into our traditional recipes.

Too, an old gardener took the seeds and nursed them
in his hut. Eventually hitting on a strain we could use.

Now we're famous for our eggplant dishes, and the school
is falling apart.

The rebels store arms in the Arts Pod.

Two flee the catty Arts


for farming, real, dirt, not
Gentleman. Traverse mud-

dy fields for planting, bosky
dells for mushrooms. They

advance in this rough trade
when one, alas, passes.

Media dwells on former career and
mentions "long-time companion"--

no tough deal in the blue states. In
reds, a fact imagined like mosques.
