S-H-A-F-T

S-H-A-F-T
Result of being shafted
Essence of oblivion
Snags in smooth operations
Non-functional factors in functional processes
Depressed emotional states (of mind)
Creating more oblivion and blows
To downtrodden depressed spirits.

S-H-A-F-T
Wrought by hassles
Academic pressures
7 AM physics exams
Misplaced applications
Unfiled data
Ten term papers in one term
Infinite add-drop lines
Inflation of text books
Registration blues
Feeling like student #0.0000000000

S-H-A-F-T
Not total trauma
From frustration emerges
The will to survive
The drive to excel
Serendipity
And
If somehow you survive
Brotherhood
With the other shafted thousands
Who have graduated from these hallowed halls



Lexerd 1973

I came across this one day mindlessly flipping through an old year book. It's kind of funny that in 1973 they felt the same way we do in 1999.
