a curmudgeon yearns

February 27th, 2007

Bret says, “This is something I scrawled while working in the public library one afternoon, absently watching the action at the Information Desk.”

Informant sits with scowling lips.
His beard is trimmed and grey.
His Ph.D. in history’s
a mystery nowadays.

He’s asked for pulp and fashion mags,
puerile rags for philistines.
He hands out codes of network nodes
to aimless listless AIMing teens.

He dreams of days Athena ruled,
erudition all the rage.
Back when students begged for school…
He stops and sighs and turns the page.

Sorry for the peener-heavy week, folks.  I’m starting to run out of buffer on the posts and these are the ones I’d pushed off ’till later.  (Can’t launch a site with peeners everywhere, or you attract a whole different crowd.)

cabbage patch doll?

by Brenna, who says “During breaks at work, I normally play word ladders, but lately I’ve been doodling on the promotional cards that come on the back of cigarette boxes.  This is one.”
