I might as well not begin my biology.
And bring to a close my sociology.
I can’t comprehend what I’ve read.
My mind is far, far away.
Back to June in Colorado days.
Pushing school thoughts from my head.
I think I could have better utilized my knowledge
If I had gone off to a Colorado college.
“It’s too far for your first year,” they said.
I could be there now, not daydreaming here.
But here I’ll stay for the rest of the year.
Consoled not by the mountains, but A’s instead.
For the good grades now ensure that college next fall Maybe this biology’s not so bad after all.
