GO ALREADY

I will take myself to the next highest level


or be pushed back into a previous rank

we're fools if we think we do other


than pontificate on our own mis-imaginings


I truly thought I could bring down the academy

with a few well-chosen truths


but being a manifestation of perfection's

intolerance and rigidity


it like all evils of the world

will endure a centuries-long empty husk


over which vermin will swarm


and praise their own living as a parasite's paradise

which I and others I see on this ledge attempt


to toss the rope cling to a precipice and hoist for better or worse...
