Michael Vail ‘24
Wants to Get Serious for a Moment, Please
…that I was disturbed,
horrified
by the rancid gust within
That I was anxious,
hesitant
to approach that field of sin
(Though it has been worse.)
But also
to make clear
that I was taken back,
quite shocked!
as
by my own
surprise
I delay to confess,
(Here it comes. Oh, well.)
I was taken aback
by, AHHEEEEM
the, cursed serpentine structure,
inanimate alone
yet all too alive…
Only saved by golden fleece,
shielded outside, not in,
ironic!
Was it actually golden?
Perception is unreal and
mine has been tainted.
(Could you not have been more careful?)
Turn, turn, turn, don’t look back.
Well thank the stars, at least
you missed it!
Aren’t you a lucky
soul…
Just a day or so in, and
hindsight
is quite real
(More than I bargained for.)
They say first impressions
are the most
important
