The Book and The Street



The book says to the street,
I am smarter than you:
My academia surpasses your
Idiosyncratic methodology:
In fact,
Ample meditation on my disciplines
Precludes from necessity
Your meager knacks.

The street says to the book,
Say that to my face.
I’ve got a crowbar that will make
Your academia cry.

Wow, definitely an interesting comparison. There's a few things that seem to trip up the first stanza, but that may be on purpose, using the extreme vernacular to point out how obtuse academia sounds out loud. "Precludes from necessity" is such a phrase.

I do like the street's reply though. Infinitely amusing.
