O! such stripes we thrash upon ourselves
scourging on superiority,
or, as the case may be, I swear:
to but maintain mere mediocrity.

No, that's not really the title of the "poem" up there (and those of you familiar with law school exams will understand this a little better than all the other students out there). That it's only a "poem," I think, excuses it from my otherwise ordinary disdain for "untitled." And besides, does this really even qualify as a poem? Certainly less so than the little ditty I wrote about pens,which I actually thought was pretty clever, by the way, but which, if anyone actually read, apparently no one got. Anyway, I thought this was kind of clever, too. I "wrote" it while walking to campus to finish studying for my final 2L exam last week.
