fundamental insanity
the basics of learning Truth
the class will meet
every day twice a week
inside of building pi
the third brick edifice
on your left
from whichever direction
have a grin in hand
to give to the professeur
concordantly
your teacher is mister
Someday comes and this glass reflects your shadow
on the wall
try to catch it slowly
and then enjoy this Perhaps
interpreters will be
provided for the dead
and heart of hearing
arrive promptly at the
postdetermined hour
lest you miss something of
grave portent
you will not be missed
by a single day of class
so don't be sick or
contract the plague until after
the final exam
at the end of forever
or the beginning of never
I forget which off-hand
four surprise quizzes
will be given
on these dates
and seven exams, but
your lowest grade dropped
and fed to wolves
by God
who will proctor the final
and sweep up after class
so please turn the lights off
when you leave after lecture
and find a partner for lab
