A Little Berkshire Angst

I celebrate myself and sing mysel
Betwixt the tangle of bureaucracy and academia
Betwixt vast arbor and obstinate mountain
Betwixt every frustrated poet
My head knows better than to daydream
Asinine command prohibits second thought
Welcome, judgment, please-
I’m wrong now, but wait until you paint me green and white.
Ah, protesters can still hear the cheers ringing in their skulls, fucked by veto power-
Your choices are few and the opportunity of a lifetime.
