College


My college experience began to fester
When I saw the women I’d be dealing with
Their looks, singing siren songs over the monotonous buzzing of the professor
My inability to focus left me feeling sick

I turned my desk to face the corner of the classroom
But I could feel my eyeballs swim to the back my head
My sight could cease, but desire would still loom
To the dogs I ought’ve been fed

I was never warned of college 
It’s all too real, you can check my grades
One more semester and I would’ve bust
Going to an all-boys school — the best decision I never made
