Why I Hated College

everyone except me
fell asleep in anthropology
from a prof in love
with the sound of his voice
once he asked a question
so I answered, waking everyone

no one in French class
wanted to learn French
they took French
because Mexicans speak Spanish
and they never
liked Mexican music

the English prof
made an office appointment
for me but instead he
went to lunch with a student
bragging about gay graffiti
he wrote on bathroom walls
but didn’t like English

a theater prof assigned
a girl and I to do outdoor mime
where strangers threw rocks
at us because everyone
hates mimes

when I got an A grade
in algebra and was surprised
because I didn’t know how
