"You only write once."

That's what this slam wants.

Write for your education,

Write for a small donation.

One thousand dollars is a start,

But don't you see the flow chart?

A knowledge-hungry mind

Will soon get left behind,

Without the means to pay

And without the means to stay-

 


In college.

 


Absorbing life, and the true wealth that is:


knowledge.
